Steps:
- For the bread pudding, cut or tear bread into pieces and place in a large bowl. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt brown sugar, milk, butter, cinnamon, vanilla, raisins, and 2 1/2 tablespoons rum. Stir constantly until sugar is dissolved. Pour over bread and allow to soak for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add 4 beaten eggs to the soaked bread mixture and stir gently. The bread should be completely saturated with the egg and milk mixture. Pour into a buttered 9-inch square baking dish and bake for 40-50 minutes until the top is browned and the middle is set. Do not overbake or the bread pudding will become dry.
- For the sauce, melt the heavy cream, white sugar, and butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Do not boil or the mixture will start to crystallize. When sugar has dissolved, add 1 1/2 tablespoons rum. Pour the warm sauce over each slice of bread pudding before serving.

This simple bread pudding is an easy way to use up those bits and pieces that seem to lie around the pantry. Save a fortune and make this tasty pudding. I like to serve this with custard sauce but it goes well with whipped cream, ice cream, or also great on its own.

BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING WITH BUTTERSCOTCH SAUCE (LIGHTER)
Mandy from Oz requested her recipe#243686 be made lighter so I took on the challenge. I not only cut the fat and sugar but added more flavor. Yum! I started with 1 serving of her recipe and worked off of that and made it 2 servings. I think this would be good with bananas tossed in orange juice mixed in it too! There are more ways to make it even lighter which I have offered below. You could also omit the sauce. ***Nutrition facts for Splenda brown sugar blend: 1/2 tsp= 10 calories and 2g sugars. So if you use all of it in this recipe that should bring the calories up to 386 per serving and the sugar to 20.5g per serving.
