custard pudding

Marie biscuits or any neutral taste biscuit - 1 packet
instant coffee powder - 2 tblsp (to make coffee decoction or if you have filter coffee decoction, its even better! )
vanilla custard powder - 4 tsp
milk - 1 litre
sugar - as required

1) Make a decoction using coffee powder and hot water. The decoction should have a strong taste of coffee and also shouldn't be too watery.
2) In the meantime, prepare custard as per the instructions on the packet- Boil milk and sugar, add custard powder mixed with 1/4 l of milk to the mixture and allow it to thicken. It shouldnt be too thick(it should be pour-able)
3) take a mould/ bowl in which you want the pudding to be set. Dip each marie biscuit in the decoction and make a layer of coffee dipped biscuits in the bowl. Then pour custard on top of it. Make another layer of biscuits etc. and then continue till you are done.
4) Close the bowl(dont forget) and let it set in the fridge for about 6-8 hrs.
5) Once set, you should be able to cut slices of it. You can add any topping to it (chocolate sauce, nuts, etc. )and eat it :) . it tastes yum!
