MICROWAVE GOLDEN SYRUP PUDDING

This pudding is a favourite treat in our house, especially on cold nights.In fact, I really need to credit this recipe to my eldest daughter Eliza who has taken this pudding on as her own and is always eager to be the one to cook this pudding.Served steaming hot, straight from the microwave with a scoop of ice-cream, this Microwave Golden Syrup Pudding is super fast to prepare and ready to serve in 12 minutes. If you have never tried making a pudding in the microwave, this is the perfect recipe to give it a go...try it...you just may be pleasantly surprised at how great it tastes.

COOKING HINTS FROM VON:-


* Pudding is best made close to serving time.


* For a delicious change, use jam instead of the golden syrup.
