Our family never manages to eat the Christmas pudding on Christmas Day. What tends to happen is that it’s covered well and put back into the fridge. In the evenings that follow, it is taken out, a slice at a time, and warmed a little, to enjoy with a cup of tea after dinner. Pudding keeps for a long time, as does my brandy butter - that is, if you don’t eat it by the spoonful each time you pass the fridge like I do, butter fiend that I am. It wold be much better for me if I didn't make the brandy butter at all, but then it wouldn’t be Christmas! What sits on your dessert list for Christmas Day?
