Directions
Mystery Lady’s Persimmon Pudding, The name is pudding, but the texture is more like an extremely moist cake This recipe IS the holiday season to me My grandmother makes it every Thanksgiving and Christmas She used to make it the hard way, but learned a trick in the grocery line one year A lady had several spice cake mixes and Grandma asked what she was making – she said persimmon pudding Grandma got the recipe and never looked back 🙂 I can’t tell you how many people I’ve had say eww, persimmon pudding? only to beg for another piece!, This recipe makes a very nice dessert, and I do agree it is more cake than pudding The first time around was a time bit complicated as I had never even tasted persimmons before, much less used them in a recipe I did have to special order the fruit but all the extra pulp went into the freezer to be used later I served it at work with whipped cream, they all loved it but thought it was a pumpkin cake, probably due to the spice cake mix used in this recipe I think that I will try making it with chocolate cake mix just for the fun of it I don’t think that I will go the frosting route though, I’ll just stick with the whipped cream or go with powdered sugar , I would definitely call this a cake, a nice and moist one used carrot cake mix instead of spice and I frosted it with Fudge Frosting My BIL pronounced it the best cake he had ever tasted and my DH loved it too So it was a big hit I will remake this but for my taste, I am going with just a golden cake mix next time I thought the persimmon taste sort of got lost in all that spice flavor
