Personal Notes:
My Grandma Gabel used to make this delicious, very rich persimmon pudding for the holiday meal. We've lost her original recipe, so this is a close as we have been able to get.

Make sure the persimmons are VERY ripe. They should be mushy - but the softer they are, the sweeter they are.

The long baking time is so the steam from the water in the bottom pan helps cook the pudding. It should be very firm when it comes out of the oven.
