Can be served as is or with the vanilla sauce if preferred.To prepare the vanilla sauce, mix the confectioners' sugar and vanilla with milk or water. Add the liquid a bit at time to bring it to a smooth consistency that is easy enough to drizzle over the bread pudding. Once you have reached the desired consistency, heat over low heat until heated through and drizzle evenly over the pudding. Enjoy!

OMG...ya'll I forgot to add the pecans as an ingredient for the praline topping. There were no pecans in the original recipe, but what are prailines without pecans? I had them in the directions for preparing the topping but failed to add the amount to the ingredient list. Please forgive!
