Ms Gertz, this is the only recipe I use for bread pudding. I've made it many times and apologize for not reviewing before now. I shop for Pannetone during the Christmas season just to make your recipe! One Pannetonne makes 2 8-inch pans or 1 9x13 pan full. If using the smaller pans, one goes to a neighbor or to the freezer to savor later. The whisky sauce is a keeper too. Many thanks for posting as it is a comfort food that reminds me of my Mom.

This truly was yummy. I added 1/2 cup of nuts and 1 tbl grated orange peel since I used white bread. I couldn't find the cinnamon so I used pumpkin pie spice instead. Since I don't like things too sweet I cut the sugar to 1/2 cup and I used half and half for the milk. I also find whisky a bit strong so I used amaretto instead. I also baked the pudding in a water bath. Thanks for the recipe it was verstile and anyone can tweak it to suit their taste.
