A delicious Kentucky dessert is Woodford Pudding. It is named for Woodford County, Kentucky in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. Bluegrass cooks have been making this pudding since 1875 and before. The first recipe appeared in "Housekeeping in Kentucky" published in 1875. This is the family recipe I use to make this pudding.
