Cake Custard Pudding





Cake Custard is one of the most simple desserts to make in no time.
I tried this for the first time and it came out really well.
Even my husband who's not a great fan of desserts liked it very much.
Here's the simple recipe

Ingredients:

1/2 Litre Milk

1/4 cup Sugar

2 to 3 tbsp Custard Powder (Depending upon thickness of consistency needed)

5 Cake slices

1 cup Fruits chopped (Use any combination of fruits you like - I used pears, grapes, pomegranate)

2 tsp Honey mixed in 1/4 cup water (You can use sugar dissolved in water or milk with sugar)

Method:

Arrange a layer of cake slices in a dish you want to set the custard.

Drizzle honey water mixture on top of cake slices to make them moist.

Mix custard powder in 4 tbsp cold milk and boil remaining milk with sugar.

Stir and add the custard to boiling milk and keep stirring till it thickens.

Remove from heat and allow to cool a little.

Spread evenly on top of cake slices as a second layer.

Arrange fruits on top of custard as third layer.

You can repeat the process to form more layers if you wish. I had only three layers.

Cover with a plate or aluminium foil and keep in fridge for 1 or 2 hours before you serve.

Cut into any shape - square or wedges and serve as it is or with your choice of ice cream.
