Custard Bread Pudding with Whiskey Hard Sauce

 Vineyarddawg (Georgia) says:
This is not technically a hard sauce. A hard sauce does not use melted butter or have a liquid consistency. It should have a consistency like whipped butter, because that's basically what a hard sauce is... whipped butter with sugar and flavorings.
