With an electric mixer, beat the sugar and eggs until thick and light. Add the extracts.
Pour into the milk-bread mixture and stir briefly. Scrape into the baking dish. Dot
the top with butter and sprinkle with the almonds, if you are using them.
Cover the pudding with foil that has been sprayed with butter-flavored cooking
spray. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the custard is set, but still moist, and the
sides are firm. It will look underbaked. Serve warm or at room temperature, plain
or with fresh sliced strawberries, a scoop of rum raisin ice cream, whipped cream,
or this white chocolate sauce on the side.
