Bread Pudding With Grand Marnier Sauce

• FOR THE BREAD PUDDING:
• 1 loaf French Bread, Cubed
• 3 cups Milk
• 2 whole Eggs
• 1-1/2 cup Sugar
• 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 1 cup Raisins
• _____
• FOR THE SAUCE:
• 4 Tablespoons Butter
• 4 Tablespoons Gran Marnier
• 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
• 1 cup Powdered Sugar

1. Cut the bread into 1 inch squares, set aside.
2. In a large bowl combine the milk and eggs. Whisk until mixed. Add in the sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Toss in the raisins and the bread chunks. Mix well, use your hands to push on the bread chunks to help all the goodness get into each piece.
3. Turn out into a lightly greased 9X13 baking dish. Feel free to sprinkle additional cinnamon and sugar on top if you like. Bake at 350 degrees (F) for about 45 minutes. You want the wetness gone and the bread to spring back at you when pushed on.
4. For the sauce:
5. In a saucepan, melt your butter, add in the Grand Marnier and bring to a boil for just a minute. Remove from heat and add in vanilla and confectioner's sugar, whisk until smooth.
6. You can plate each piece of bread pudding and then pour the warm sauce over it or pour the warm sauce over the whole thing and serve...your choice.
