SIMPLE CHRISTMAS PUDDING
This simple pudding is easy even if you've never made one before. If you don't have a pudding mold, you can steam it in a metal bowl covered with foil. It has a rich gingerbread flavor and is a very dense dessert. I served it with roast beef and Uncle Bill's Yorkshire pudding and had a lovely Midwestern version of a traditional English Christmas meal.
