Malva Pudding-South African Recipe Review!

Malva Pudding is as South-African as you can get !

This is a delicious dessert. Great flavor. It reminds 

me of bread pudding, sort of. I think it would be

really good with peaches in it. May try that next 

time, and yes, there will be a next time. Everyone

loved this and took the recipe home with them. 

 It is a dark, shiny {slightly sticky} sweet dessert, which is best enjoyed hot with whipped cream, custard or ice-cream. {Secret: if there happens to be a leftover piece the next morning - eat it cold - it will be toffee-ish and pure delight}

Ingredients:

Beat sugar and eggs together

Add the jam

Mix well

Sift flour, baking soda and salt in separate bowl

Melt butter and add milk and vinegar

Add the Milk and Flour mixtures alternately to the Egg mixture

 

 

beat until just smooth.

Spray dish with Pam

Bake for 45 minutes at 350

over  heat the Fresh Cream, Butter, Sugar and Water until the

 Butter is melted and the Sugar has dissolved.

When finished baking 

pour sauce over pudding and let stand

It will soak it up quickly

Slice and serve

Enjoy!
