Then over low heat or over simmering water in the bottom of the double boiler, cook pudding mixture slowly, stirring constantly until the mixture is thickened and bubbles begin to appear. Remove from heat.
Pour or spoon into individual dessert cups or dishes and set aside to cool slightly before serving. Or refridgerate until ready to serve.
