This is a little work but so well worth it!!

INGREDIENTS*~*~*

* 1/2 cup unsalted butter
* 1 cup packed brown sugar
* 2 tablespoons corn syrup
* 6 French bread
* 5 eggs
* 1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 teaspoon brandy-based orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier)
* 1/4 teaspoon salt



DIRECTIONS *~*~*

1. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Mix in brown sugar and corn syrup, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Pour into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
2. Remove crusts from bread, and arrange in the baking dish in a single layer. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, half and half, vanilla extract, orange brandy, and salt. Pour over the bread. Cover, and chill at least 8 hours, or overnight.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the dish from the refrigerator, and bring to room temperature.
4. Bake uncovered 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until puffed and lightly browned.

Oh, this sounds just dangerously divine!
It is fabulous!! You got to try it sometime!
It sounds wonderful. I'll have to plan to have guests when I make it. Otherwise, I'd eat the whole thing myself. smile
