POUDING CHOMEUR
Though it translates to 'unemployed man's pudding,' pouding chomeur isn't cheap to make. The good news is you don't really need to eat this more than a few times a year anyway. It's the perfect dessert to pair with summer fruit or vanilla ice cream. If you use a bigger baking dish than I did, and pour over all the maple cream syrup, your cake should float over a pool of what will eventually be your sauce. If you just use a deep pie dish like I did, then just serve the extra sauce on the side.

POOR MAN'S PUDDING (POUDING CHOMEUR)
Living in Quebec you learn many things. One, you learn that shoveling snow is considered a winter pastime. Secondly, and more deliciously, you learn that maple syrup can be put on a heck of a lot more than just pancakes (crepes up here). This little recipe is call Poor Man's pudding, and there is probably a recipe for every single family in the Province. This is the one my wife's family makes, and is fantastic. Yes, it's a little sweet, but nothing an ice cold glass of milk can't fix!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- In a large heavy pan, bring to a boil the maple syrup and the cream. Pay close attention, because it will boil over! Once a slow roll begins, continue for about 3 to 4 minutes, and remove from the heat.
- With an electric beater, beat the butter and the sugar together. Add the eggs and continue beating for about 2 minutes.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder and the salt. Add the dry ingredients into the the egg mixture, alternating with the milk.
- Pour the batter into a 13x9-inch pan. Pour the maple syrup/cream mix on top.
- Bake for 30 minutes.
- Enjoy with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or all by itself!
- *NOTE*: a variant that I saw on a local television cooking show called for doing all the above steps, but using single serving baking cups. Before adding anything, put in one or two frozen raspberries, then the batter, followed by the maple/cream mix.
- Makes an impressive and tasty quick dessert on a cold winter night for guests.

- 3. Beat together butter and sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.

- 5. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together into egg mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined.
- 6. Pour 1/3 cup syrup mixture into baking dish.
- 7. Divide batter in bowl into 6 mounds with rubber spatula and spoon each mound onto syrup mixture in baking dish, spacing mounds evenly.
- 8. Pour remaining syrup mixture over and around mounds.
- 9. Bake until topping is golden and firm to the touch, 25 to 30 minutes.
- 10. Serve warm, with creme fraiche or sour cream if desired.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use whole milk or heavy cream instead of 2% milk. This will give your pudding a creamier texture and a more decadent taste.
- If you don't have evaporated milk on hand, you can make your own by simmering regular milk until it reduces by half.
- Be sure to grease your baking dish well before pouring in the batter. This will prevent the pudding from sticking to the pan.
- Bake the pudding until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the pudding cool slightly before serving. This will allow it to set and thicken.
