Christmas pudding tips

This is the first of many tips and recipes I will be adding to this blog throughout the Christmas period. I so hope you are enjoying this and will add comments when you can.

It has been traditional to serve Christmas pudding with brandy sauce or worse - brandy butter. Our family has never liked either of those two options and short of using ordinary custard thought there was nothing really suitable. Well we have now, for years, been using brandy cream as an option. Not the stuff you buy in the supermarket but the real thing made at home in minutes.

Recipe:-

Ingredients;
* Whipping cream - light version if you wish or Elmlea - the cream alternative
* Brandy
* Caster sugar to taste ( we often use sugar substitute to "slightly" cut down the calories!)

Method:-

Whip the cream until nearly stiff.
Add the sugar or sugar substitute and a generous serving of brandy ( or rum if you prefer)
Continue whipping until stiff and spoon over the hot pudding just before serving.

WOW! Just watch that cream run down the hot pudding and taste the brandy in it - you really will NOT go back to custard or brandy butter.
