I went to visit my good friend Kate today, also known as the Queen of `sticky toffee pudding'(my favorite pud in the world). STP for short. Kate's STP is still the best in the world and still retains the title queen of stp!
Thanks Rach and Jaffa... I wonder how many times we've eaten it?!!! About time I posted you some Rach... sure there'd be a slice for you too Jaf.... :-)
This is the chocolate marble cake I made for my nephews school fete in the classic Guess the weight of the cake competition. The answer: 13lb and 12oz.
Today is Stir Up Sunday. The last Sunday before Advent. I made my xmas puddings today, after soaking the fruit is brandy overnight. They are now steaming away in the slow cooker for several hours. This process makes them very moist and full of flavour. Stir-up Sunday dates back to Victorian times, when cooks prepared the Christmas pudding by stirring the mixture and adding silver coins as good luck token!
I am totally gripped off! That is one mega of a dessert!
ReplyDeleteIt is still my fave pudding in the world and was truly delicious. I still have a slice in the freezer to have when I need a sugar pick me up.
