I made Christma Puddings yesterday. We don't know whether there will be a "lockdown" over Christmas, so I've made an assortment of sizes. I also made a pudding for my bff Y.
I also reheated a leftover pudding from last year, ready to make truffles today.
Today, I made Nigella's Puddini. Truffles made with christmas pudding, golden syrup, plain chocolate, and Pedro Ximenez sherry. The PX is so sweet, it's sweeter than golden syrup. Ask me how I know.
I melted some white chocolate to cover them with, and I ate what was left in the melter.
And, I made peanut brittle. I don't think I cooked the caramel long enough as it isn't setting. I made the mistake of testing it while it was trying to set, and this was the final straw. I now have a full blown sugar headache, I have no sympathy for myself.
I'm not sure about the puddini. They taste like... cold christmas pudding and chocolate. DH ate one and quite liked it, which was a surprise.
I've put four in a tub to take to Y, along with her pudding, but I need to try and shake the headache first.
