This pudding is not only delicious, but it's also beautiful. I love serving it in individual ramekins, topped with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios. It's a real showstopper!

This recipe is a great starting point for aspiring bakers. It's not too complicated, and it allows you to experiment with different flavors and techniques. I've used this recipe as a base for several of my own creations, and they've all been a hit.

I love the base recipe, but I like to add my own twist to it sometimes. I've tried adding chopped nuts, dried fruit, and even spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. It's always a delicious and unique dessert.

I made a few healthy swaps to this recipe, and it turned out great! I used low-fat milk instead of whole milk, and I replaced the sugar with a sugar substitute. It was still plenty sweet and delicious.

This pudding is absolutely divine! The caramel sauce is luscious and decadent, and the pears add a touch of sweetness and crunch. I love that it's not too heavy, so I can enjoy it without feeling guilty.

I was so excited to try this recipe, but it didn't turn out well for me. The caramel sauce was too thick, and the pears were undercooked. I think I'll try it again with some modifications.
