The weather is cooling down, time for puddings and nice winter fruit . I always get very hungry at this time of year and this is a treat. Simple, sweet and very quick. Interested? OK then give this a go with custard or icecream. I made a nice thick custard and froze it to serve with this Apple and Butterscotch Pudding.
