Malva Pudding
'Malva' means marshmallow. But there is no marshmallow in the pudding? It refers to the texture of the pudding as it is soft and spongy. This sweet pudding is a winter-time winner but such a favourite that it is served throughout the year at any special occasion.
Serve warm or cold with custard or icecream. This recipe has a special variation to the original specially for my husband as he loves nuts.

Notes
