Directions:

  1. Prep time does not include overnight chilling
  2. This is so simple and delicious.
  3. It's hard to imagine that white bread and sweetened berries can mingle to produce a luscious summer dessert.
  4. The bread soaks up the juices, turns a vivid pink/purple and holds the berries in place.
  5. I make this for a ladies luncheon always receiving many requests for the recipe.
  6. Line a bowl ( 6 to 8 cup capacity ) with plastic wrap .
  7. Or Use a plastic gelatin type mold, then you don't
  8. Need plastic wrap to line it .
  9. Remove crusts from bread and piece bread into bowl, pressing pieces together (somewhat like a puzzle ) so no space is left.
  10. It's okay to overlap the bread pieces,but press them in
  11. Meanwhile place fruit in a pan with the sugar and liquor and over medium heat just bring to a boil and then simmer 5 or 10 minutes so fruit release its juice and fruit becomes softened.
  12. Remove from heat and cool.
  13. Place (Ladle ) fruit into the bread lined bowl. .
  14. Top with more crustless bread.
  15. Cover with plastic wrap.
  16. Weigh down the top with a heavy plate that fits snugly over
  17. The top of the pudding.
  18. Chill 24 hours.
  19. Prior to serving, carefully remove
  20. Plate/plastic, invert bowl onto a platter and remove plastic.
  21. Decorate the pudding mold with whipped cream and mint leaves. Slice wedges ( or spoon off pieces )and place on plate, spooning on any extra juices over the pudding.
  22. Note: other fruit such as cranberries, and chopped ripe peaches may be used.
  23. Bread such as egg or challah also may be use.
  24. One does not want to use a fluffy spongy type of bread but rather a firmer one that will be able to soak up the berry juices and yet hold a shape.
  25. Note 2: use any combination of berries to make about 8 cups.
  26. Some cranberries also add a lovely colorand I used them in the recipe with excellent results.
