Homemade Vanilla Pudding Ingredients Directions

This brings back some childhood memories. My mum used to make it this way. She also made it with strawberry jam stirred in instead of the vanilla. Yummy x

Thanks so much for this recipe. I have been on a pudding kick and never thought about making home made. I just rely on those boxes of Jello. I would much rather make it from scratch. Definitely pinning. Visiting from Make it Pretty Monday. Blessings, Wanda
