The plums themselves were very tasty after being marinated in the amaretto. The pudding, though, was a bit of a problem for me. Even as I was pouring it into the pan, I kept thinking it might need something, just not sure what. But I followed the instructions faithfully. The pudding was still very runny after 25 minutes, and I ended up cooking it longer. It ended up with a rubbery texture that we didn't care for and was bland, taking away from the very tasty plums. But all was not a loss - we loved the plums macerated in amaretto, and will be making them often to put over homemade vanilla ice cream. Yum!

I am a a mother of one little boy who has Autism... this means I am a very busy lady but I still love to cook and enjoy spending hours in the kitchen with the little man. One day he'll be a chef! At just 3 years old, he knows (and does) make a beef casserole to die for and one of the best pasta sauces I've ever tasted!!! Anyhow... I've seen so many great recipes on here and so I've signed up to share my own and so I can use this shopping list feature too!
