This is my aunt's recipe, she copied it from a newspaper in the UK a few
years after the war, it was suggested that 'at last we can splurge a
little'. Whiskey can be exchanged for the rum very easily, any alcoholic
flavour one wished would do. It is a good recipe for taking to parties as
it is best served warm, rather than hot.

Diana's Bread And Butter Pudding

6oz raisins - soaked in rum
8 thin slices of white bread
2 oz. unsalted butter
4 oz . apricot jam
10.oz full milk
10.oz blend
3 lge eggs
Caster Sugar (fine sugar used in England, I just use regular sugar)
Vanilla

Butter the slices of bread, spread with apricot jam, cut off crusts and
cut into quarters. Place in dish. Sprinkle the raisins over sandwiches.
Beat the eggs - Heat the milk, sugar and vanilla. When hot, add a little
very slowly to the egg mixture until it is all combined. Pour over the
sandwiches and bake in a 325 deg oven for appx. 45mins. to an hour. (The
baking dish should be placed in a larger dish with water reaching up at
least half way) Best served warm, but not hot.
