FRUIT COCKTAIL PUDDING

Fruit Cocktail Pudding image

This recipe comes from my mother, she always made this when I was a child. It is one of my favorite puddings, I make this pudding very, often as it is quick and very, very, very easy to make. I use a can of fruit that has a little bit of everything in it, such as cherries,grapes, peaches, pears, pineapple and guavas. One could use any fruit, however I find a can of mixed fruit is the secret to this pudding
