    Question Mini Xmas Pudding Recipe ?? ... Need a yummy recipe : )

    Hi all,

    I have never made Mini Xmas Puddings before

    All i know is i need a 'cheap' fruit cake to crumble BUT what other ingredients & How to make them ??

    I won't be able to add alcohol as there will be kids eating them too !!

    My sister thinks there maybe a recipe where you add condensed milk (?), though she wasn't certain ??

    Thanks a million for any kind replies

    Xmas Cheers from Lorelle xox

    heres one I found online, looks the same as what i've made in the past

    Ingredients
    * 700 g fruitcake, store purchased. I prefer a dark fruit cake
    * 1/4 cup brandy or orange juice or water, with some brandy essence added
    * 250 g white chocolate, melted
    * 3 red decorative candies, use red snakes lollies
    * 5 green decorative candies, use green snake lollies

    Directions
    1 Crumble the fruitcake with your hands into a mixing bowl.
    2 Stir in the brandy and mix thoroughly. Add enough of the brandy (or substitute) so that the mixture will easily roll into walnut sized balls. Roll into balls using your hands.
    3 Place the rolled balls onto a lined baking tray.
    4 Melt the chocolate and drizzle over the balls to represent the custard. Use a teaspoon and let the chocolate run down the sides of the little puddings.
    5 Chop the snake lollies using scissors into small slices. Add two green and one red piece to the top of the puddings. Position the lolly pieces lose together, these become the holly atop of the puddings.
    6 Refrigerate until the chocolate has set. Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated.

    MMM YUM! I find the homebrand cakes work good!
