Mini Christmas Pudding recipe: Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease four 1 cup (250ml) dariole moulds or ramekins. Place cake, milk, egg, fruit mince and Pedro Ximenez in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Divide the mixture among the moulds and cover with foil. Place in a deep baking dish and pour enough boiling water into the dish to come halfway up the sides of the moulds. Bake for 45 minutes or unil firm. Remove the puddings from the baking dish and rest for 10 minutes. To serve, invert the puddings onto plates and top with custard and glace cherries. By then, the mini Christmas pudding is ready
