Mix all ingredients well and pour into a greased baking dish. (Aunt Mary
used a tube pan.) Dot with butter and bake at 325 for 2 hours, or until a
knife run through the center comes out clean. Serve plain or with whipped
cream to which a little almond extract has been added. The consistency of
this desert resembles a firm pudding.
