    I use black treacle to get the darker colour.
    I couldn't imagine using gravey browning. Never mind each to their own.

  • microwave chocolate sponge is a big hit in our house (although I have yet to stun Mr Rage with pink custard!!!! :D ) - made bread and butter pudding once when he houseshared and I think it might have been tampered with as it wasn't that nice - may try that again - pineapple upsidedown cake (be-ro version) with custard...................loads of apple crumbles made from our tree and still we haven't even dented the freezer (and it doesn't look like we've touched the baclkberries either!!!) and you now expect me to go and eat my yoghurt........ :o
    But I'm going to say this once, and once only, Gene. Stay out of Camberwick Green :D

    Great receipe thrifty, never thought of putting golden syrup in the mix before, tend to pour it over the finished article to serve.
    One correction though, marmalade is NOT OPTIONAL, just try to make sure you dont get the end that has no marmalade, (as I seem to always wind up with) No comments please about spereading it evenly, there is always one end that has more than its share, same whenever a receipe requires alcohol (I remeber my dad always had a knack of getting the "extra sherry" end of my Nan's trifle!)

    Another one that nan always made and I often make for my children is milk jelly, I just replace equal quanities of water with evaporated milk (allowing to cool before adding milk so as not to curdle).
    Only problemis that they can never get enough of it!!

    My Mum was a great pudding maker. Things I remember :

    Huge bread pudding First half served straight from the over with custard and the rest left to cool for later
    Macaroni pudding
    tapioca pudding
    rice pudding (of course)
    Egg custard. Yum
    Spotted !!!!!! and custard
    Jam roly poly and custard
    Lots of steamed puddings - jam, apple etc

    She also did jelly soufle rather like sproggi's, but first added 1/2 the water. Left the jelly to half set and then whisked in the evaporated milk. Put it back to set in the fridge (or on the cool shelf before we had a fridge!). The result was a light, fluffy soft, creamy, bubbly jelly that looked like the inside of a pink aero :T

    Unfortunately, I can't be trusted to do things like this for my family as I tend to eat half of it before it's cooked and the other half when it's ready before everyone see it :confused:

    We've been having banana custard lately. Chop a banana in a bowl, pour over custard and eat hot or cold ... real comfort food :D

    That's another of our favourites - at least one of my favourites to make in a hurry! Sometimes it has a surprise in it. For example, I had some sponge fingers, so broke them up into the bottom of the bowls, poured a little bit of fruit juice, then added the bananas & custard. Another time I put an "irish cream" after eight chocolate in each one, on top of the banana before pouring the custard. (~Frankly it was a better use of that flavour of after eights. We've still got some left, and I keep trying to give them away. Now I know why the person who gave them to us did so!)
