Christmas Plum Pudding
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, at room temperature 1 cup granulated sugar 6 eggs, at room temperature
2/2 cup chopped citron 1 1/2 cups pitted prunes, chopped
3/2 cup dark raisins 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
4/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 1/2 cups fine bread crumbs 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon
ground nutmeg
5/2 teaspoon ground allspice Whipped cream for garnish
Cream the butter and sugar together in an electric mixer. Beat the eggs in, one at a time. Combine
the citron, prunes, raisins, and pecans in another bowl. Add the flour to the fruit and nut mixture
and toss together so that everything is coated with flour. Add to the butter and egg mixture along
with the remaining ingredients. Blend for 1 minute so that all is incorporated. Grease and flour a
souffle dish, about 7 x 4 inches. Add the heavy batter and bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for
50 to 55 minutes, or until nicely browned. Serve warm by spooning out or cool and cut into pieces.
Garnish with the whipped cream. Serves 8.
