Cabinet Pudding

[Eleanor Rose]

​

Have you ever had leftover cake that's past its prime, but you hated to toss it? Well you don't have to! This cabinet pudding recipe actually calls for stale cake. The pudding comes out dense, the same consistency throughout, and not too sweet. Sounds like the raisins are a must-add, but any other dried fruit will probably work.

I have seen her cookbook before. Have to check my notes.
