Delicious! I used regular sugar and french bread, as that's what I had on hand... it was amazing. I will definitely make it again, but will probably reserve it for holidays or birthdays. Scrumptious!

Oh, Rita! This was so decadent!! Not too sweet, and the whipped topping was just what was needed! I wasn't able to find challah bread, so had to use French bread. But, I recommend using challah if possible - the results will be so worth it! This recipe is so easy and quick to prepare, but looks impressive when it's served! Thanks for this wonderful recipe that I will be making again and again! It's a winner in my book! :)
