A very different kind of pudding! I loved the combination of the apples and bananas with the kick of the brandy along with the tartness of the lemon juice. I don't know what I did differently than Nimz, but mine set right up. Thnx for sharing your recipe, susie. Made for the Voracious Vagabonds during ZWT 6.

The flavor of this recipe is wonderful with a hint of brandy. Love the small chuncks of apple and banana. The only problem I had was that mine never set. I even let it sit for 8 hours and it was still like soft homemade icecream. The grandson loved it. He thought he was eating ice cream. Thanks
