Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 cups milk
2 cups water
6 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup shredded unsweetened coconut, make it a large 1/3 cup, but not
1/4 cup margarine, melted
3 -4 cups french bread, cubed
2 eggs
1/8 cup whiskey or 1/8 cup lemon juice or 1/8 cup amaretto
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup margarine, melted
Directions:
1. Combine the sugar, milk and water in a bowl and mix well. Add the eggs, salt, vanilla, coconut and 1/4 cup melted margarine and mix well. Stir in the bread cubes. Let stand until the liquid is absorbed. Spoon into a 9 x 12 inch baking dish.
2. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the pudding rises like a souffle and springs back when touched.
3. For the sauce: Combine the eggs and flavoring (whiskey or lemon juice or amaretto, not all!) in a food processor. Process until well blended. Add the confectioners' sugar and 1/2 cup melted margarine and process until smooth.
