Hi all I am wanting to make some spongy puds for during the week - something like a self sauce choc pud and a golden syrup pud, rubarb sponge etc as puds at this time of the year are nice to have. But I want to make them all at once for a week supply and freeze them down in individual containers.
So my question is how far do I cook them before freezing them?I have plastic containers with lids that freeze and microwave so when I want the pud I will heat it in the microwave but I don't want it to be too dry because it was already cooked through before freezing. If you understand what I am meaning. Any suggestions would be really appreciated as always. Thansk in advance Raewyn

I would cook them up, then put them into containers then zap them just before serving. If your worried about going a bit dry, spray a bit of water over them before zapping them.
Then you can serve with ice cream, cream and custards:)

I make mine in muffin tins, bake and then freeze, I find that they are just the right size for puddings. I zap 30 secs in MWand they are fine, not dry.

if you google golden syrup dumplings and make them you could freeze them individually with the sauce, they are yummy and very easy to make.

i Make butterscotch pud with a caramel sauce,can add dates to it for variety, and a gooey sticky rich chocolate pud with a chocolate sauce, the magical orange cake is a good one also with a orange sauce, in crock pot then cut it into serving size segments with sauce and freeze ( in my case enough for 2) thaw out and zap spoon sauce over top and serve with icecream etc and they are great for winter.

An old recipe.....4 oz butter, 4 oz sugar, 4 oz SR flour, 2 eggs.Cream butter & sugar ubtil creamy, add 1 egg at a time and beat well.Fold in sifted flour.1/2 fill well greased muffin tins and bake @ 180C for 12-15 minutes. Sometimes I add 1/2 cup of one of the following coconut, sultanas, choc chips, or 1 cup frozen blueberries or chopped apple + pinch cinnamon. If making chocolate ones replace 2 tablsp flour for same of cocoa & add with flour.
