Pro Tips: Lemon Delicious Pudding

• No Need to Soften Butter: The biggest advantage of this recipe is that you don’t need to soften the butter beforehand. You can take it straight out of the fridge, cut it into cubes, and slightly melt it in the microwave to use.
• Fridge-Cold Eggs & Milk: There is absolutely no need to bring eggs and milk to room temperature. You can use cold eggs and milk straight from the fridge; the recipe will still turn out completely perfect.
• Gentle Folding: When folding the beaten egg whites into the batter, avoid mixing too vigorously. Use a rubber spatula with a light hand to retain the air, creating a delicious sponge crust on top.
• Water Bath (Bain-Marie): Place your baking dish inside a roasting pan and fill it halfway with boiling water; this is the exact secret that makes the pudding extra saucy and velvety on the inside.

Best of all, all ingredients can be used straight out of the fridge—no need to soften butter or bring eggs and milk to room temperature.

• Q: Can I make this pudding ahead of time?A: Yes! This pudding is fantastic for making in advance. You can bake it, let it cool, and store it in the refrigerator. Just reheat it slightly in the microwave before serving, and it will taste just as fresh and saucy!
