Dip spoon into rippled topping and scoop up heaping spoonful, maintaining the rippled surface. Gently touch whipped topping onto surface of dessert.

Made this on 10/6/07, very easy to do. A comment from one of my guests was maple syrup should be poured over it when served. I had served with just cool whip. This was a hit--no left overs.

Delicious! I like firm bread pudding, so I cooked an extra 15 minutes. Also, I added in some milk chocolate pieces and served with frozen Cool Whip - I like it better than vanilla ice cream. Turned out fantastic!

This is the first dessert ive made from scratch and i was prety proud of myself with the outcome! I substituted diet syrup, 2% milk, skipped the nuts and added rum. It tasted a lot like french toast, but very good.

I made this for a group meeting at church and it was a big hit. I also substitued sugar-free syrup, skim milk and egg beaters. The taste was fantastic and if you are on Weight Watchers it is only 2 points for a cup, 3 with the (lite) whip topping! It went over so good, I have to bring copies of the recipe to next weeks meeting.

I substituted sugar free syrup and fat free milk. I also added a small amount of raisins and cinnamon. This is by far the best bread pudding I've had and I didn't have to feel guilty about eating it.

My husband thought this was one of the best things I have made. I added raisins to the milk and syrup with it while it was heating. I couldn't imagine bread pudding without raisins.
