I'm not surprised your French friends loved it. It was a multinational gathering when I made my larger version and it went down a treat with all of them!I'll look out for the Tamsin Day-Lewis recipe. I have that book somewhere but - as is usually the case - it's on the other side of the English Channel from where I am at the moment!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-58274387808533444812020-02-17T11:41:18.999+00:002020-02-17T11:41:18.999+00:00I love both, but at home I always make tart.

I do love the slightly fudgy consistency the melted butter gives, and it's so quick to do. Other than that, Tamsin Day-Lewis's recipe in The Art of the Tart is more fiddly, but the result is fantastic.Veronicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15863957299338406459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-29602101961585330632020-02-17T11:11:16.033+00:002020-02-17T11:11:16.033+00:00Phil, the puddings are indeed very rich, no wonder...Phil, the puddings are indeed very rich, no wonder you were full!Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3896642794207631523.post-34843493888110422642020-02-16T22:55:08.108+00:002020-02-16T22:55:08.108+00:00That is a lovely Bakewell tart and I'm sure th...That is a lovely Bakewell tart and I'm sure that it would do me very nicely indeed as a dessert at any time. I have to confess that I have a great fondness for the Bakewell pudding, though. I had my first taste of the pudding in a small cottage very near Litton Mill (empty and undeveloped at the time) in October 1988 - I'd say it was Tuesday the 11th if pressed. As you can tell, it definitely made an impression on me. There were 2 large puddings as a dessert between four of us. I've never felt more full in my life.
