Leftover Christmas Pudding Recipe

Christmas pudding in itself is delicious, but if you have some leftover from your Christmas meal you just might want to do something a little different with it.

Well, this Christmas pudding muffins with sherry butter icing recipe is something different and something you're going to like.

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE MUFFINS

    1 egg
    75ml milk
    30g salted butter
    2 tbsp sherry, whisky or brandy
    125g leftover Christmas pudding
    125g plain flour
    1 tbsp baking powder
    1/2 tsp mixed spice
    75g caster sugar

FOR THE SHERRY BUTTER ICING

    125g sifted icing sugar
    50g salted butter, softened
    1-2 tbsp sweet sherry, whisky or brandy

METHOD

Preheat the oven to 350F or gas mark 4. Line the muffin tins with paper cases.

Whisk the egg in a bowl. Add the milk, melted butter, sherry and the Christmas pudding.

Sift the flour, baking powder and mixed spice into another bowl. Add the caster sugar and mix well. Make a well in the centre.

Add the wet ingredients and mix together until a soft batter forms. Spoon the mixture into the paper cases and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool on a wire rack.

While they are cooking, make the sherry butter icing.

Mix together the icing sugar and the butter. Add enough sherry, about 1 tbsp, to just soften the mixture and make it spreadable.

Once the muffins are cool, spread the icing over the top and serve.
