Persimmon pudding

Jody reports that she made PP and that Libby immortalized it in a very well annotated post on Cafe Libby.  I can't access Cafe L!  Horrors!  So here is a Cliff's Notes version of my standby, from the WashPo:

3 T butter
1.5 c sugar
2 T vanilla
2 egga
2 lb persimmons - boil 1 min + to remove skin

1/4  milk
2 1/4 c flour
1.5 t baking soda
1/2 salt
1 t cinnamon
1T grated lemon peel

Oil and flour on mold.  Can cover mold first with parchment paper and then with tin foil, using rubber band to secure.  May take 2.5 hrs to cook.  Water should stay 1" away from top of mold. 

add 1/2 t sugar to brandy and mix.  Pour mix over top of unmolded pudding so it puddles in grooves.  Place atop tray or good large trivet.  ,Ignite

The first comment translates on google as Arabic for "The best company to detect water leaks in Ahsa." I am so glad that my pudding has these properties.
