Easy eggless butterscotch pudding

Easy and delicious eggless butterscotch pudding !

Ingredients
  

  • 115 grams or 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 480 ml or 2 cups milk
  • 42 grams or 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 24 grams or 3 tablespoons corn flour
  • 45 ml or 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Dissolve the corn flour in the water and keep aside.
  • In a thick bottomed sauce pan, heat the butter and sugar until butter melts.
  • Add 1/2 cup of the milk and let the mixture heat until all the sugar melts.
  • Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups milk and the salt and stir.
  • Add the dissolved corn flour and heat over medium heat while stirring continuously until the mixture thickens.
  • You will know the pudding has thickened when you feel the thickening while stirring and the whisk will show marks in the pudding as you stir. This may take 5 to 10 minutes depending on the size of your pan and the heat.
  • When the mixture thickens, lower the heat to a simmer and cook for one more minute while stirring.
  • Take off heat , stir in the vanilla and pour into dessert bowls , glasses or ramekins.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for atleast 2 hours before serving.

Notes

This recipe makes 4 servings and can be refrigerated for upto 4 days.
You can make this vegan by using non dairy butter and non dairy milk like almond or soy
My measuring cup is 240 ml.
Puddings develop a "skin" on the top. If you want to avoid this, while chilling cover the top with plastic wrap with the wrap touching the surface of the pudding .
I used light brown sugar but dark will probably give better results.
