Craft & Harbour - Tipsy Laird Puddin'

Tipsy Laird Pudding will go well with your Burns Night celebrations, or any night when you fancy a cheeky pudding.  This one has a pub flourish being served in a pint glass.  That’s the bonus of Tipsy laird, it can be as fancy looking as you want.  Simple ingredients of sponge, Drambuie, cream and delicious raspberries, make this a favourite of mine.

Many thanks to Craft & Harbour Restaurant for supplying the recipe.

This recipe serves 6.

    Yass, love seeing a Scottish recipe online that isn’t just shortbread! Also, Tipsy Laird is highly underrated, much tastier and generally more exciting than Cranachan! 🙂

      Yay! Cranachan is good in theory but…. needs sponge! 🙂
