BREAD PUDDING

Preheat oven to 425 F.
Recipe requires one heavily buttered 8 x 12 inch glass casserole dish

1 pint heavy or half and half cream
5 eggs
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup white sugar
3 cups dry bread, broken or crumbled
2 or 3 teaspoons butter

In a medium-sized bowl, beat cream, eggs, nutmeg and sugar together. Add enough bread to soak up milk mixture but still be very soupy. Pour into a small glass casserole dish and dab butter here and there on the top.

Bake for seven minutes at 425 F. then turn oven down to 350 F and bake for 25 minutes or until pudding has set. Serve hot.
