Description:
Yuletide is upon us and what better way to celebrate and indulge oneself….Christmas pudding/cake anyone!? In case you don’t have enough time to make it, here’s my take to make it super easy and quick. It will be done within the hour.
Ingredients
150g butter, at room temperature
½ cup brown sugar
2 eggs
premixed dry fruits soaked in brandy (I used 410 g Waitrose Christmas brandy mincemeat which had sultanas, currants & raisins in 7 % brandy)
1, ½ tsp mixed spice
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup cranberry sauce
½ cup plain flour
2 cups fresh bread crumbs
Instructions
Beat 150g soft butter with 1/2 cup brown sugar.
Beat 2 eggs in the butter & sugar mix (1 egg at a time) and add premixed dry fruits soaked in brandy.
Further add mixed spice, vanilla extract, cranberry sauce, plain flour, fresh bread crumbs and combine all the ingredients well.
Grease well a round microwaveable bowl, line the bottom of the bowl with parchment paper & transfer the pudding mix in the bowl. Cover again with parchment paper & microwave on 40% power for 35 mins. Leave to cool in the microwave for another 15 minutes before serving.
