Per request from Len Seyberth, New Auburn. Not sure if this is what he wanted but it is a delicious dessert. This is very rich and a small piece is usually enough. I would suggest making a half recipe. The molds I have are fluted and have a lid that latches. You could use several thicknesses of heavy silver foil and put a rubber band or string around it to hold. The pudding will raise. Good luck.
