Biscuit Pudding

I never knew you could make pudding out of biscuits, until I came across the recipe for a biscuit pudding on Divya's Easycooking blog.....*smiles*. The pudding was so easy to make and it was quite tasty too. I would tag this pudding as a 'kid-friendly recipe', because the kids would love it.


You would find most of the recipes I had tried out is from Divya's Easycooking blog. Thats because as her blog title suggests, her recipes are easy to follow and require less effort!! *smiles*




Ingredients:
Recipe Source: Divya's EasyCooking

Marie biscuits - 1 packet
Milk - 1 packet (500ml)
Sugar - 5 tbsps
Cornflour - 3 tbsps
Cocoa powder - 3 tbsps
Coffee decotion* - 4-5 tbsps diluted with 2-3 tbsps of water
Nuts - to garnish (I used cashewnuts, almond and pista)




Method:
  • Dip the marie biscuits in the coffee decotion (both sides) and layer them in a serving bowl.
  • In a pan, boil milk and add sugar.
  • In a bowl, mix cocoa powder and cornflour. Make a paste using very little milk, taking care not to form any lumps.
  • When the milk boils, add the cocoa - cornflour paste and mix well. It will thicken immediately, so keep stirring.
  • Remove from the flame when it thickens, but still of pouring consistency (similar to custard).
  • While still hot, pour it over the biscuits and cover the biscuits completely with the sauce.
  • Garnish with nuts of your choice (this is optional too).
  • Refrigerate for 4-5hrs and serve chilled.
* You could use instant coffee powder too. Mix 1-2 tsps of instant coffee powder with 3-4 tbsps of warm water.

After everybody had their share, I had little left in the fridge and so decided to bake this Goan cake - Pansache Dhonas, which I had penned down from Raksha's Kitchen some months back. I would say this cake is definitely a healthy one as it uses no maida, sugar or butter.... The cake tasted quite different from the normal ones and it was indeed yummy!

Keep aside. Let it cool for at least 20 mins. Remove the jackfruit seeds and put them into a mixer and make a pulp out of it.
