Place 8 slices in a buttered 13 x 9-inch baking dish and 4 slices in a buttered 8-inch square baking dish.
Combine eggs, half-and-half and milk; beat well. Pour over bread, turning slices to coat evenly.
Bake at 350℉ (180℃) F for 35 minutes or until golden.
Serve immediately with Grand Marnier Fruit Sauce.

Combine sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan; add butter, stirring until smooth.
Add Grand Marnier and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil.
