This has been my Mom's specialty for as long as I can remember. This is another recipe that people not from Mennonite background look at and just shake their heads! (Pudding from CEREAL!!??!!)However, to me, it remains a childhood memory and a traditional Mennonite dish that reminds me of my heritage. My mom always served this with strawberry or raspberry sauce.

Oh what a lovely dish this is. I wish I had known of it when I came home from surgery. It would have been SO comforting. It's a keeper. I am so very glad you shared it. I'm going to send to my 6 sisters - they will love it too.

    We liked it! I never thought about having pudding for breakfast but I couldn't resist having a bowl warm after making it up yesterday morning. Then last night I served it cold with caramel sauce for company. Thanks Pam, made for ZWT, please see my rating system as I rate tougher than most.

    Pamela, this is a wonderful dessert. I reduced the recipe to serve 2 and put the servings in custard cups. I was able to use Splenda for the sugar and pureed frozen strawberries for the topping. With or without the fruit topping it is wonderful!

    Thank-You for posting this recipe. The finished product made me think of my Grandma. (something she would have made) The only changes I made were that I cut the recipe in half and I didn't have any regular Cream of Wheat so I used CoCo Wheats. It made enough for 4 custard cups. I will make it again WITH the CoCo Wheats! Worked great! No need for sauce. Hint for newer cooks-always stir milk until and during boiling unless otherwise instructed.
