Pudding Recipe ⤏ Steamed Cranberry Pudding

Easy to make, and delicious to eat using just a few ingredients. This steamed pudding is traditional at Christmas - served with Hard Sauce.

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• ½ cup hot water
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• ½ cup molasses
• 2 cups whole cranberries
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup unsalted butter
• ½ cup heavy cream
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Cooking Directions

1. Dissolve the baking soda in the hot water. Stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar and molasses, then mix in the cranberries and flour. Pour into a greased 6 cup steamer mold.
2. Cover the mold, and place into a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover the steaming pot. Cook over medium heat for one hour before checking, but it will take about 1 1/2 hours total. A toothpick inserted into the pudding should come out clean. Loosen the edges, and cool on a wire rack in the mold.
3. Make the hard sauce just before serving: Heat the unsalted butter, cream, 1 cup sugar and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook stirring constantly until heated through and smooth.
