Slice into 1-inch squares (bread triangles), and press white portion into center, and strips across edges. Refrigerate 4 hours at room temperature. Remove wrappers from puffy centers (glaze). Slice stringy edges about 1 inch or so from the top, and insert 2 teaspoons vanilla extract in center of each loaf to fill large hole at the top. Place bricks in bottom and sides of loaf resealable plastic bag. Line loaf with plastic wrap; freeze until firm.
