The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

Creamy Pudding

Another great one from Heavenly Homemakers


Creamy Vanilla Pudding
2 1/2 cups milk
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup real maple syrup (grade B is best for you) or honey
1/4 cup arrowroot powder
1/4 t. sea salt
1 T. butter
1 t. vanilla
In a medium saucepan, whisk together milk, egg yolks, maple syrup, arrowroot powder and salt.  Cook over medium heat, stirring CONSTANTLY until pudding begins to thicken.  Stir over the heat for about 15 more seconds.  Remove immediately from the heat, and continue to stir until pudding is creamy.  (I use my whisk the whole time for stirring and find this works great!)  Add butter and vanilla and continue to stir until mixed.  Pour into serving dishes and serve warm, or chill for two hours and serve cold.

Mommy has only made this to make Pudding Pops but boy is it good!  Even Daddy liked the Pudding Pops and they are much healthier than anything you could buy at the grocery store.  Yum!
Love Always,
Mommy
