BREAD PUDDING 
1 cup bread
2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 Tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup sugar
grated lemon rind
lemon flavoring

Remove crusts from bread. Pour milk over soft bread. Allow to stand until soft, about 30 minutes.

Separate eggs.

Add egg yolks, slightly beaten, 2 Tablespoons sugar, and grated rind of 1 lemon.

Pour into buttered baking dish and set in pan of water to bake until it sets.

Beat egg whites until stiff, gradually adding scant 1/4 cup sugar while beating, and a dash of lemon extract, lemoncello, or lemon juice (whatever you have). Spread the egg white mixture out on top of the pudding while still warm, then return to oven until slightly golden brown.

Cool, and just before serving add a spoon of tart jelly in the center of the meringue of each serving.

OH, thanks for posting this CM. I just finished eating the final product and it was really good (had it with ice cream).

I did not have all the ingredients you called for so I had to sub honey for brown sugar and I used biscuits (broken and toasted in oven first). No nuts on hand, will definitely use those next time. Since it has probably been at least 20 years since I made anything from scratch I am well pleased with the results - family members were too!
