Butterscotch Pudding


I don't know about you, but I'm a pudding lover from way back. My mother used to make all kinds of puddings for dessert....even blancmange, which I actually liked! Talk about bland. Her custards were perfection. No holes, not watery, just creamy mouthfuls.
My favorite pudding, or should I say the one I make the most, is plain old tapioca (I remember in boarding school we called it fish eye pudding), but any pudding will do (except instant.). Even chocolate pudding, for which I posted a divine recipe HERE, and you know I'm not a chocolate lover, so you know this is ambrosial.

Well recently, Lori from Recipe girl posted a butterscotch pudding recipe and I made it immediately. It's creamy and delicious and so simple to make. When the mood strikes you, give this a try. Bet you have everything in your pantry to make it.

Butterscotch Pudding
From Recipe Girl


Ingredients:
1 1/2  cups brown sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
3  cups whole milk
4 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons butter
unsweetened whipped cream, for serving

Method
Whisk together the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a saucepan.  Pour in the milk and egg yolks; whisk to combine, and stir the together over medium heat.  Once it starts to boil, reduce heat and while stirring, cook until thickened. When it seems like it has a nice, thick texture for pudding- pull it off the heat and stir in the butter.
Spoon the pudding into small glasses or dishes and chill for at least 2 hours.  Top with whipped cream before serving.

  3. If you asked my husband what his favorite flavor of pudding would be, he'd say butterscotch for such. This sounds delicious.

  4. Although I am a die-hard chocolate lover, butterscotch is probably my most favorite pudding flavor! There's something about pudding in the winter also that just makes you feel cozy. Looking forward to trying this! Thanks, Barbara!

  8. I love custardy desserts - butterscotch pudding isn't something I grew up with but since I tried it a few years ago I have been hooked. I tend to add a slosh of actual scotch (or bourbon) to mine though.

  9. I just had a lovely butterscotch pudding at a local restaurant. How much nicer not to make from a box! (Though all I need is another recipe causing me to collect egg whites!)
