"One of the better recipes for bread pudding. The vanilla sauce recipe may be cut in half if desired, but it is so good, you might just want to prepare it with the stated amounts."

Made the sauce only, to go with another bread pudding recipe. It was so wonderful on the pudding. Used left-over sauce on french toast after the bread pudding was gone. It would also be fantastic on ice cream. Just an all-around scumptious flavored sweet sauce.

Mmmm, rich and yummy pudding! This was bit heavy on bread, next time I will maybe change the ratio of bread and apples, to have more apples in it. I will also mix the egg into the pudding next time, not just drizzle on top, it did form some eggy crust on top. I would not halve the amount of butter sauce but I did halve the butter in it. Might leave it out alltogether, next time, but then it wouldn't be butter sauce anymore, would it? I love using butter in my cooking, but not in great quantities. All in all this was very yummy and we really enjoyed it.
