Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Space two racks evenly in the oven.
- Cut five 3/4-inch-thick slices of brioche and place them in one layer on a sheet pan. Trim some of the crusts from the remaining brioche and cut in 1-inch dice. Spread out on a second sheet pan. Put both pans in the oven for 5 minutes to lightly toast the bread.
- Meanwhile, for the custard, whisk together the whole eggs, yolks, half-and-half, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla and vanilla seeds in a large bowl and set aside. Line a 3-quart baking dish with the whole slices of brioche, cutting them to fit in one layer. Distribute the diced brioche on top. Pour on the custard and press lightly so all the bread is soaked with custard. Set aside for 10 minutes.
- Place the dish in a roasting pan large enough to allow the baking dish to sit flat. Pour about 1 inch of the hottest tap water into the roasting pan, being sure not to get any water into the custard. Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil, tenting the foil so it doesn't touch the pudding. Cut a few holes in the foil to allow steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until the custard is set and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Dust with confectioners' sugar and serve warm with the melted ice cream.

BREAD PUDDING (TENDER) N SAUCE (VANILLA OR SPIRITED)
This is a tender, delicate, delicious bread pudding. For me to say that is quite a compliment, as I usually avoid bread pudding. Jean Dunlap, at our church, made it for a ministry fair and it was sooooo good. The only change I offer is the possibility of replacing about 1/4 cup of milk for 1/4 cup of spirits (rum, whiskey or amaretto, etc.)

BEST BREAD PUDDING WITH VANILLA SAUCE
We found this recipe tucked inside my mom's Bible when going through her things. It has become a family tradition on the first snow day of the year and if that doesn't happen, which can be the case here in central Virginia, we know it'll be the featured dessert at Easter and anytime a comfort food is in order.

Tips:
- Use stale bread for a better texture. Fresh bread will make the pudding too mushy.
- Cut the bread into small cubes for even cooking.
- Soak the bread cubes in the milk mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the bread absorb the flavors and become tender.
- Use a variety of bread for a more complex flavor. Try using a mix of white, wheat, and rye bread.
- Add your favorite spices and flavorings to the milk mixture. Some popular options include cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, and citrus zest.
- Bake the pudding in a water bath for a moist and creamy texture.
- Serve the pudding warm with your favorite sauce. Some popular options include vanilla sauce, caramel sauce, or fruit compote.
Conclusion:
Bread pudding is a classic dessert that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
