Butterscotch Pudding

"Puddings can be purchased packaged, but it's nice to have a recipe when you don't want to make a special trip to the store.  In any case, homemade pudding is tastier, less expensive, has less preservative, and it's not that difficult." - Calla Ferre

"Delicious served with fresh or canned fruit." (Better Homes and Gardens)
