I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pudding was a complete disaster. It was burnt on the bottom and the apples were still raw.

This pudding was a waste of time and ingredients. It was bland and unappetizing.

I followed the recipe exactly but my pudding didn't turn out well. It was too dry and the caramel sauce was too runny.

This caramel apple pudding was a hit! The gingersnap crust was the perfect complement to the sweet and tart apples. I'll definitely be making this again.
