Old-Fashioned Bread Pudding

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10x12-inch baking pan.

Combine half-and-half, eggs, sugar, heavy cream, raisins, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a bowl; mix well.

Arrange bread pieces on the bottom of the prepared pan. Pour cream mixture over bread. Allow to soak 10 to 15 minutes.

Place the baking pan into a larger pan; fill the larger pan with water halfway up the sides of the smaller pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 60 to 75 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet over low heat. Pour into a small bowl; add confectioners' sugar and mix well.

Remove bread pudding from the oven. Poke holes throughout using a butter knife. Pour butter sauce over the top.
