MYSTERY LADY'S PERSIMMON PUDDING
The name is pudding, but the texture is more like an extremely moist cake. This recipe IS the holiday season to me. My grandmother makes it every Thanksgiving and Christmas. She used to make it the hard way, but learned a trick in the grocery line one year. A lady had several spice cake mixes and Grandma asked what she was making - she said persimmon pudding. Grandma got the recipe and never looked back. :-) I can't tell you how many people I've had say "eww, persimmon pudding?" only to beg for another piece!

MYSTERY PUDDING
When I was small our money was tight. Mom usually had a can of fruit cocktail and all things needed for this on hand. It was a sweet treat. It's more of a cake than a pudding. I still make it when craving an easy sweet.

Tips:
- Choosing the Right Bread: Use a firm, slightly stale bread that can hold up to the moisture of the pudding. Consider using a crusty bread like French or Italian bread, or a sturdy whole-grain bread for a healthier option.
- Soaking the Bread: Properly soak the bread cubes in the milk mixture to ensure they are evenly moistened and tender. Allow the bread to soak for at least 15 minutes, or up to overnight for a richer flavor.
- Balancing the Sweetness: Adjust the amount of sugar or sweetener to your personal preference. Taste the pudding mixture before baking to determine if it needs more sweetness.
- Mixing the Pudding: Mix the pudding ingredients thoroughly to ensure a smooth and creamy texture. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the pudding tough.
- Baking the Pudding: Bake the pudding in a greased baking dish until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The baking time may vary depending on the size and depth of your baking dish.

The Mystery Pudding is a versatile and delicious dessert that can be enjoyed all year round.
