greased aluminum foil. Place on trivet or rack in large kettle or Dutch
oven; add enough boiling water to come halfway up[ side of can or mold.

or until wooden pick comes out clean. Remove coffee cans or mold from
eater. Let stand about 10 mins. With a knife, loosen pudding around edge of
can, turn out of cans. Serve warm with the Spicy Butter Sauce.

Spicy Butter Sauce: Combine sugar and cornstarch in small saucepan, stir in
water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thick and bubbly.
Add butter, spices and vanilla; blend well. Serve hot. Makes about 1 1/2
cups.

Tootie Notes: This recipe is about 100 years old. I think it was probably a
common dish of my Grandmother's era. This dish keeps in the refrigerator
for at least a week and freezes very well. To heat: Put in top of double
boiler and heat over boiling water.The sauce is smooth and spicy and serve
hot.
