Puddings and Desserts  

Ingredients

500 ml Milk
50 gm Breadcrumbs
2 Egg yolk(s)
� Tbsp Cocoa
1 Tbsp Granulated white sugar
25 gm Butter or margarine
40 gm Desiccated coconut
1 tsp Vanilla essence

Meringue Topping

2 Egg white(s)
1 Tbsp Caster sugar

Method

Preheat the oven to 150�C.

Put all the dry ingredients in a bowl. Heat the milk and pour it over the dry ingredients.

Separate the eggs. Add the well-beaten yolks and vanilla essence to the bread mixture and stir well. Pour into a lightly greased baking dish. Stand the dish in a pan of cold water and bake until set. Allow the pudding to cool slightly. Spread a thin layer of jam over the surface. I use raspberry or apricot jam.

Beat the eggs whites until stiff and then beat in the caster sugar. Spread the merigue over the pudding and bake until the meringue is golden brown.
