Made with cornmeal and molasses, Indian pudding is as old-school a New England dessert as it gets. Topped with a melting scoop of vanilla ice cream or dollop of whipped cream, we think it’s a comforting as it gets. Make a batch at home (Old-Fashioned Durgin-Park Indian Pudding Recipe) or visit one of the following eateries for a fine, ready-made example.
