Bread Pudding with Vanilla Sauce

Many restaurants use day old danish in place of bread for bread pudding. Delish!

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. I love bread pudding with vanilla sauce!
