Mountain Dew Pudding

Yes, you see that correctly. I stumbled upon this recipe in Snap Shots at Cookery ©1899, a church cookbook. I'm not certain why it was called Mountain Dew Pudding but that is how the submitter of the recipe labelled it. I've found a variety of recipes dating back to the 1880's but no reason for why they called it that. Enjoy the recipe.

MOUNTAIN DEW PUDDING.
Three square crackers rolled fine, one third of a coffee cupful of sugar, one pint of milk, yolks of two eggs. Bake thirty minutes. Beat the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth, and add one half a cupful of sugar and a little salt. Flavor with lemon. Pour over the pudding, and set into the oven to brown.
