This bread pudding is divine! I really love eggnog but the calories are terrible so this is a nice solution. I added one cup of eggnog instead of the evaporated milk. I also sprinkled freshly grated nutmeg on top and cup the sugar in half. I did use the sauce as well and it took this dish from wonderful to transcendental.
