Hi Dear Folk,
I found this in my drafts, where it was sitting never having been drafted to my blog, so here we are Edith Wharton's' Plum Pudding recipe; which I found On Paper and Salt an interesting blog of Authors and corresponding Recipes.
I love a Plum Pudding, dark and rich. This turned out more like a very fruity bread pudding, but still delicious and fun to make and good to eat and not as much prep and cooking time. The Boy liked it so much, that he ate two and not paying attention when taking it out of the fridge, in his usual rush, he broke a handle off one of my Pennsylvania Cannonsbury oven bowls.
1. Combine cranberries, dates and brandy in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
2. In a large bowl, combine remaining ingredients, except for milk. Stir in fruit and any accumulated juices. Stir in enough milk to form a wet dough, 1/4 to 1/2 cup.
3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Butter 4 ramekins. Press in pudding mixture and cover with foil, securing with string around the edges
Give it go.
Christy

Sounds delicious so may give it a go. No brandy though so will have to substitute!
