One of the great things I think about this recipe is that it makes just 4 servings. I have a couple that are so large it would be dangerous for me to have that much Butterscotch Pudding in the house.

.40, I had a dream that I was swimming the back stroke in Butterscotch Pudding last night...I'm not kidding.

I'm determined to make some today. Again, thanks for the recipe.

Thanks for the kind words. I don't think I've ever been swimming in pudding...interesting.

My favorite thing about this recipe is that I can buy a small container (1 pint) of heavy cream and get the 1/2 cup that's needed for the recipe and then I have a 1/2 cup leftover to whip for the topping.

If you're buying a pint of heavy cream, you have 2 cups to play with, not one...
