This is one of my favourite desserts. It brings back a lot of childhood memories from when my mum and gran used to make it for us. Now I’m making it for my own family and creating tasty memories for them! Here’s hoping that it will do the same in your families and for those you prepare it for. Serve it with more custard, ice-cream or a drizzle of fresh cream.
