I am trying to find a good and easy Bread Pudding with the vanilla sauce that goes over it. I can't seem to be able to find a good and easy one. Please help. I would like a creamy sauce to go over it. I've had it in restaurants that were delicious, but when I make it, it just isn't right. We don't like raisins though. Can any of you readers please help? My husband loves it

Mix the soaked bread and pour into a 3-quart Pyrex pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes. This is best served warm.

You may want to fix it with a few raisins, as they will flavor the bread pudding, and just pick them out when you eat it. Sometimes you just have to use some ingredients or the dish will not taste the same.
Many restaurants use day old danish in place of bread for bread pudding. Delish!
