Let stand for 1 hour.
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Add margarine or butter and toss gently.
Spoon mixture into a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until pudding is set. (Bread pudding will look a little undone when you remove it from the oven because it needs time to 'set up' - about 15-20 minutes but you can tell when a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Just remove and let it do its setting up!
Serve warm or at room temperature. Cut into 12 squares ”“ place on individual dessert plates. Top with whiskey sauce.
Investigate other variations - bread pudding is such a great dessert and you really can rarely 'kill it'.
For elegance, you can serve in fancy dessert cups or add things like whipped cream in a dollop or shaved or drizzled chocolate, nuts, etc. It all depends on the meal preceding the dessert and the 'flavor' you are setting for the meal.
