Crock-pot dessert

Always wondered why people made dessert in crock pots.. I mean, really, they only take about 5 mins to prepare then chuck em in the oven. Not hard right? Well, I did this one the other day. Put it on same time as I put in the roast, and I am so pleased I did. Meant I could eat dinner, and not worry about doing 100 jobs at once to get dessert on the table after!

So, here is the Butterscotch self-saucing pudding recipe I made. Sorry, forgot to take photos - too busy eating!

1 3/4 C self raising flour
 (or 1 3/4C flour, with 2 tsp baking pdr)
1/4C sugar
2T melted butter
3/4C milk

Sauce
4T golden syrup
1T butter
1C boiling water

Preheat cooker for 20 mins
Lightly grease 6 cup capacity casserole type dish (that fits in your crock-pot!)
Sift flour and sugar (and baking pdr) into mixing bowl.
Combine melted butter and milk and add to dry ingredients. At this stage I found I needed to add more milk to make a cake ixture type consistency, so up to 1/4 c  more milk may be needed
Spoon into casserole dish.

For the sauce, mix all the ingredients together until butter is melted. Then pour gently over pudding mixture.

Place casserole dish on trivet (or upturned bread and butter plate) in crockpot.
Cover crockpot with lid.

This is how you set it to cook... (with upside down bread & butter plate under white casserole dish)

Cook for about 2.5-3 hours.

Serve with cream, or ice cream....
