Steps:
- To reheat the pudding, place an upturned saucer at the bottom of a large pan. Put the pudding basin on the saucer and pour hot water around to come three-quarters of the way up the sides of the pudding bowl. Cover and steam for 1-2 hours. Make sure the water doesn't all evaporate.
- Turn the Christmas pudding out onto a plate. Pour the brandy into a ladle and carefully warm over a low heat for 1 minute or so. Light the brandy using a long match and tip over the pudding just before serving with https://www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/brown-sugar-brandy-butter/ >brandy butter.

FLAMING CHRISTMAS PUDDING
My mother made her Christmas puddings in late October along with her fruitcake (I know, I know -- Fruitcake? LOL) Making this and eating it reminds me of her and all the wonderful Christmas memories she made for me as a child.
