Now is the time to prepare your Christmas puddings. This is a traditional
English recipe.
Mix thoroughly the suet, flour, breadcrumbs, spices, and sugar.  Mix in the
fruit, mixed peel, nuts, chopped apple then the zest.
In a new bowl beat the eggs and add the stout and rum. Add to the dry
ingredients, and stir VERY well ( it is best to use a very large bowl).
Cover the bowl and leave overnight.
Grease 2, 2 pint pudding basins and pack the mixture into them.  Cover with
greasproof paper and pudding cloths, tied on with string.  Steam for 8
hours. Cool, and store in a dark, cool, dry cupboard. To reheat for eating,
steam for 2 hours. Serve with Cumberland Rum Butter.
Cumberland Rum Butter: Blend butter and sugar, add rum slowly, and mix
well. Pack into molds for serving and chill. Remove from fridge just before
serving.
