Grandma Mobley’s Home Made Sweet Potato Pudding

This Recipe is from some of my ancestors.. I find them comforting to say the least.. 
 
 
 (Grandma Mary Caroline Morgan Mobley brought this recipe with her from Georgia when she came to Texas as a young bride.  In the 1800s everyone had large families.  Measured in qts. & pts.— comments of Lucy Hodge)
 
 

    Wash and peel potatoes.  Use the coarse side of grater and grate 1½ qts. raw potatoes.  Add 2 eggs, 2/3 cup molasses, 1 cup sugar, ½ pt. flour and corn meal mixed (1/2 cup each), 1 pt. sweet milk, ½ teaspoon nutmeg.

    Combine all the above and mix well.  Put in a greased pan and bake 20 minutes.  Remove from oven and add ½ cup melted butter.  Stir in well.  Return to oven and bake until firm.
