Recipe Introduction


I first made this Dec26/02 for the Hancharuk Family Brunch that Barry and I have. This was also the first year that we had the hockey game on the lake. Lots of fun for everyone. I also made this for Jenna's wedding party for their breakfast on the big day.





List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup butter
  
• 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  
• 2 Tblsp corn syrup
  
• 1 loaf of Italian or French Bread
  
• 5 large eggs
  
• 1 1/2 cups half and half (I have used whole milk)
  
• 1 tsp vanilla
  
• 1 tsp Grand Marnier
  
• 1/4 tsp salt
  






Instructions



1. Melt butter with brown sugar and corn syrup over moderate heat, stirring until smooth. Pour into a 9 x 13 pan.
   
   
2. Cut 6 one inch slices of bread and trim crusts.
   
3. Arrange slices in a single layer, squeezing them slightly to fit.
   
4. In a bowl whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, Grand Marnier amd salt until well combined.
   
5. Pour evenly over bread, chill, covered 8 hours.

Final Comments


Very good hot out of the oven. Not as good once it has cooled for too long.
