Bread pudding was made with bread which was 'past it's best', it was left to soak in either water or milk with sugar and ground mixed spice (cinnamon, coriander, cloves, pimento, nutmeg and ginger) and dried mixed fruit added (currants, raisins, sultanas, peel etc) and left to infuse and for the fruit to plump up a bit. The whole lot is 'mushed' together and it is put into a buttered baking tray and baked in the oven, with some more sugar sprinkled over the top.

There was no definitive recipe as it was usually made 'by eye'.

 

Just found some ground mixed spice at the back of the cupboard, with a date of 2004 :laugh: , but it was unopened and is still as fresh as a daisy, so I could well be making one in the near future :yes:

I don't know if you get Tim Tam's over there but people go CRAZY for them here,especially women. Whenever I go overseas I give them as gifts and people seem to go silly over them. They are quite nice but don't come close to a good choc chip cookie imo.

yea there called penguins here

 

Dont the aussies use tim tams like a straw in tea?

That's the stuff, my great grandmother used to make it. It's also known as 'Wet Nelly' in some places. The proper bakeries still make it round here, it's stunning! I've also had it with pastry on, that's also nice. :)
