Oh yes... pudding ! It's a thang from way back. Great Granny made it, Granny made it..... and now Mom. It's called pudding, but you mix it with other things of course, pour it in a baking dish and bake it. Then you can cut it into squares, but it IS very soft.
I'm pretty sure I've never had persimmon bread, but I bet it is good too.
Yum, I can't wait to try it. After Christmas Day!!!
