I made this delicious pudding-style desert for our neighbourhood BBQ last Sunday. We are fortunate to live in a charming, quiet street with lots of tall mature trees, established gardens with roses, where neighbours know each other, go camping during the summer holidays for a week, and time to time get together to watch family movies on a large screen in the garden. I could’t think of a better environment to raise my son. I wanted to create something comforting, delicious and light to have after the feast and thought of this simple and quick, yet absolute winner, of a dessert. The combination of the melting hot texture with scoop of an ice-cream was divine. And yes, I did have two bowls. Enjoy making it and sharing with your loved ones.
