Indiana Persimmon Pudding

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 15 min. Bake: 40 min. + cooling YIELD: 24 servings.
Fall is a wonderful time of year in the Midwest and this dessert is a Hoosier favorite. This old-fashioned pudding is moist, dense and firm. It's not like the packaged pudding mixes.—Judy Tharp, Indianapolis, Indiana
