Aunty Adele Loo's Shockingly Delicious Bread Pudding

The name says it all, folks:
Aunty Adele Loo's Shockingly Delicious Bread Pudding

2 c. warm milk
5 c. bread cubes
2 beaten eggs
3/4 c. sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c. raisins (optional)
3 tbsp butter

Preheat oven to 300. Pour warm milk over bread cubes in a large bowl. Add and mix together the eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and raisins. Pour into a greased 8" pan. Top with dots of butter and bake for 45 minutes until knife comes out clean.
Aunty Adele adds in all caps, "Please note, I usually double the recipe and bake in a 9x13" pan"

Rating: A slobbery and infatuated A+
Notes: Aunty Adele brought this to a potluck and knocked all the other ladies on their butts. She finally acquiesced to our begging for the recipe by bringing about 50 printed copies to church. My copy, crunchy now with butter and milk stains, is folded cozily into the jacket of my Joy. But I figured I should put it here for safe-keeping, too. Thanks Aunty!
