     Preheat oven to 350 °. Tear up bread into medium size pieces and place in a large greased baking dish. Heat milk and butter in a large saucepan over low heat until butter melts. Pour over bread. Beat eggs; add sugar and almond extract. Pour over bread and gently stir in. Sprinkle with almonds. Bake about 40 minutes until set.
     To make sauce, melt butter and powdered sugar in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and quickly whisk in 1 egg. Stir in Amaretto and beat until smooth.
     To serve, cut bread pudding into squares and top with sauce. Serve warm, even if made ahead. (Can be reheated in microwave) (Serves 12)

CLASS NOTES: Bread pudding tends to deflate once it starts to cool. Better than the average bread pudding---don't pass this one by!
