Lemon & lime delicious pudding

Indulge in the vibrant and tangy flavors of Lemon & Lime Delicious Pudding. This delightful dessert combines the citrusy zest of lemons and limes with a creamy, rich texture that will leave your taste buds dancing. Perfect for any occasion, this pudding is sure to impress your family and guests with its refreshing taste and simple elegance.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 1.5-quart baking dish or several smaller ramekins with butter or a non-stick spray.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the 1/2 cup of butter and 1 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. This can be done manually with a wooden spoon or with a hand mixer.
3. Add Zests and Eggs: Add the 2 tablespoons of lemon zest and 1 tablespoon of lime zest to the creamed mixture and mix well. Then, add the 4 eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to ensure a smooth mixture.
4. Incorporate the Flour: Gradually stir in the 1/3 cup of all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Add the Milk: Slowly pour in the 1 1/2 cups of milk while continuously stirring to create a uniform batter. The mixture will be quite runny, which is normal.
6. Prepare a Water Bath: Place your greased baking dish or ramekins into a larger baking dish. Fill the larger dish with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the smaller dish(es). This water bath will help cook the pudding evenly and prevent it from cracking.
7. Bake the Pudding: Transfer the water bath and pudding into the preheated oven. Bake for 40-45 minutes if using a single baking dish, or 25-30 minutes if using smaller ramekins. The pudding should be set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the center when done.
8. Cool and Serve: Carefully remove the baking dish from the water bath and allow to cool slightly. You can serve this delicious pudding warm or chilled, depending on your preference. It pairs wonderfully with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
9. Garnish: Before serving, you may garnish with additional lemon and lime zest for an extra citrusy touch.

Tips:

- For a more intense citrus flavor, add extra lemon and lime zest.

- Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.

- When separating the eggs, make sure no yolk gets into the whites for a smoother pudding texture.

- Using freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice will enhance the pudding's natural flavors.

- Bake the pudding in a water bath (placing the pudding dish in a larger pan filled with water) to prevent it from cracking and to ensure even cooking.

- Let the pudding cool slightly before serving to allow the flavors to meld perfectly.

With its refreshing citrus flavor and smooth, creamy texture, Lemon & Lime Delicious Pudding is the perfect dessert to end any meal. Easy to prepare and even easier to enjoy, this pudding will become a favorite in your home. Serve it chilled or slightly warm, and watch as it disappears in no time!
