Cut each slice of bread into two 2-inch circles (16 circles), using a cookie cutter or something similar. Arrange the circles of bread in 1 or 2 dishes with sides large enough to hold the circles in 1layer. Pour the soaking liquid over and soak well, turning so that the bread absorbs as much liquid as possible.
