The Cottage Smallholder

Hmmmm.... Still have two boulders left, may try it. Had thought of adding custard to wet them! Have to say though the chickens like them. Plan to try some more though as think I did not mix enough....I used the Kenwood and wasn't sure how long to mix it for.

  Oh Sue, you know how you are with celery etc.....well those kind of puds affect me in the same way. When I had the restaurant I made endless variations & people loved them & came miles to eat them. I even made them as special orders for customers to serve at home. I used to force myself to taste them, just to check all was well but it was torture.

 I do like Christmas pudding because it's so full of fruit it is not 'claggy'. I love fruit tarts & some cold puddings that don't have too much cream in them but I mostly have fresh fruit for dessert.  I love chocolate souffle, both hot or cold etc. but it has to be made with dark, bitter chocolate.

You are right Sue, thank goodness we are all different & none of us are right or wrong. 

However I don't eat many desserts now because I am too lazy to make them just for myself.....a piece of fruit is much easier, sometimes with a slice of cheese. Today I shall have a ripe pear with some Brie.
