Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -- -- --

2 ounces unsweetened chocolate

1 quart milk -- scalded

2 cups bread crumbs --see note

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 cup butter -- melted

2 large eggs -- slightly beaten

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

It is best to use crumbs from homemade bread. Preheat oven to 325

degrees. Butter a 1 1/2 or 2 quart baking dish. Break the chocolate

into bits and melt in the scalded milk, stirring until smooth. Add

the bread crumbs and set aside to cool. When lukewarm, add remaining

ingredients. Mix well, pour into prepared dish and bake for about 50

minutes or until set. Soft as a pillow with a full, light,

chocolate-pudding taste. Serve this with real whipped cream, not the

artificial whipped cream. From Fannie Farmer cookbook-- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
