Malva Pudding Made with Jam and a Sweet Milky Sauce

Sweet, creamy, soft and warm. There is an endless list of delicious words that can be strung together to describe these little individual malva puddings!

The Malva Pudding Flavour

Malva pudding really is a delicious little treat. It ticks all the boxes, warm, sweet, creamy and spongy. And as far as flavour goes, one actually wonders where that smooth caramel taste comes from! The truth is that the heating and mixing of simple ingredients, such as butter, milk, sugar and jam, creates the beautiful caramel flavour that is malva pudding’s signature taste. Although if you wanted to experiment some chocolately enhancements could add variety. Since you are undoubtedly going to be making this again and again. 

Quick and Easy to Make

To top it off, anyone can make these individual malva puddings. If anything, these are especially easy to perfect. Because thanks to the divine milky sauce poured over the top you will never be left to serve a dry cake. Plus, your 12 individual little cakes can be ready in under an hour!

All you need to do is make your cake dough by mixing butter, sugar, egg, flour and milk. Then add some secret ingredients like lemon juice and apricot jam, before pouring your batter into a muffin tray. Remember to leave some space within each mould for your cake to rise. Then comes a quick 30 minute bake, during which you can boil together your milky sauce ingredients. And the grand finale comes with drenching your individual malva puddings in the hot candied sauce.

If these tickled your tastebuds and you are looking for the next sweet treat to surprise yourself with, try our Caramel, Cream, Coconut, Vanilla Cake Balls, I think the name is motivation enough!
