Chocolate Pound Cake Eggnog Pecan Bread Pudding

This bread pudding is rich and chocolately thanks to the double chocolate pound cake with chocolate chunks and a warm drizzle of hot fudge. This dish comes together quickly since you don't have to bake a pound cake from scratch ... just thaw the Sara Lee pound cake slices! The eggnog flavor is present, but since there is no additional sugar to the bread pudding, it is not overly sweet.
