Let’s take a little trip shall we? To the land of butterscotch pudding. The homemade kind. The only ingredients not pictured are the vanilla extract, salt, and cornstarch. Picture them in your mind.
I pretty much sort of almost not quite followed THIS recipe. Yes. It’s totally true that evaporated milk does not appear in that recipe. Which is why I added it. For a grand total of 4 and a half cups of milk. I could have substituted some of the evaporated kind for the whole milk. Only. I didn’t.
I didn’t know butterscotch pudding had actual butter in it. It does. It’s good. You stir it in at the end with the vanilla. The whole effect is intoxicating. Swoon worthy. The aroma is bliss. Mine probably has a milder flavor with the extra milk. If you want a richer butterscotch-exploding-in-your-mouth flavor use less milk. I’m also thinking coarse sea salt sprinkled on top = heaven on earth. Next time.
I always wanted to press plastic wrap onto the top of cooling pudding. That might have been my favorite part of all.
I lie.
That pudding looks sooooo dreamy!
yum…
actually next time I make it i was planning to add a splash of scotch! you are SO PERCEPTIVE stephen my love!
What, a MAM recipe with NO ALCOHOL in it? I’m astonished – but I fear you may start revising the recipe.
I see you are not a pudding skin person. I’m astounded. But then again, if we had a pudding and it had a skin, I’d get it all!
I had forgotten such a thing as butterscotch pudding existed. Another part of childhood rediscovered. You have inspired me to go out and buy some just like my mom did:)
your pudding sounds delish. i’ve been meaning to make some coconut cream. maybe i will give it a try today. i visited the etsy shops. wonderful books. but when i went to susie’s i absolutely fell in love with her work. as much as i am with yours, LOL. soon, soon i will have extra money to take your class. can’t wait. but where ever do you all manage to find all those wonderful papers? my scraps and recycled mail looks nothing like what you guys are using. can you feel the envy? hee hee.
Yummmm… I love butterscotch ANYTHING!
Butterscotch anything is my favorite. Your pudding looks so delicious. Yummy! Creamy! Enjoy your mini vacation weekend. Happy creating…
