I also found a recipe for Amish Cracker Pudding that is not as old.  4 c. milk, 1 c. sugar, 1 1/4 c. 1 sleeve of crushed saltine crackers, 2 eggs, beaten, 1 tsp. vanilla and 1 tsp. cinnamon if you want. Heat milk and sugar over medium heat. Slowly add cracker crumbs stirring constantly. Remove some of the hot mixture and stir it into the beaten eggs. Return egg mixture to hot mixture and boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Now remove from heat and add some vanilla and cinnamon. Chill! Top with whipped cream.
