Steps:
- Lay your cake pieces on the bottom of a buttered baking dish, fitting them in snuggly next to eachother. Combine 4 eggs, 1 3/4 cups of milk and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and whisk together. This will be the custard. (you may need a little more milk if you are using more cake). Carefully pour the custard over the cake cubes and press down with a spatula to absorb the liquid. Bake in a 350F oven for about 35 minutes. When ready to serve, cut into pieces and drizzle the warm cake pudding w/ heavy cream (as if the cake-turn-pudding didn't have enough fat & calories).

I created this recipe as a combination of two other recipes as a response from a sermon my pastor preached where he mentioned eating this in a restaurant. I couldn't find one online and tried this. It's not a quick one to make but its not too difficult.

- Whisk in milk. (I'll sometimes add some lemon zest to this, too.)
- Pour over pound cake; let soak for an hour.
- Heat oven to 350.

- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath: This will help to prevent the bread pudding from drying out.
- Let the bread pudding cool before serving: This will help the bread pudding to set and make it easier to slice.
- Serve the bread pudding with your favorite toppings: Such as whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh fruit.
