Old Fashioned Coffee Pudding
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. + chilling
YIELD: 4 servings.
This pudding was handed down from my husband's great-grandmother. To give an idea of how old this recipe is, it was translated from her German script found in an old ledger when she'd collected favorite recipes from her friends. It's a bona fide and delicious "antique". The only modern touch that I've added to it is the option of using decaffeinated coffee.
