Total Time: 1 hrs
 Prep Time: 15 mins
 Cook Time: 45 mins
 Serves: 6

 Pudding
 
    2 tablespoons butter
    1 teaspoon white vinegar
    1/2 cup milk
    1 cup superfine sugar
    2 eggs
    1 tablespoon apricot jam
    1 1/3 cups cake flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 pinch salt

Sauce
 
    1 cup heavy cream
    1/2 cup butter
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1/2 cup orange juice or 1/2 cup sherry wine

Directions:
 
    1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter or margarine together with vinegar and milk. Remove from heat, and set aside. Meanwhile, sift flour, baking soda, and salt together into a separate bowl.
    2
    Beat 1 cup sugar and eggs with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy and light colored, about 5 minutes. Gradually mix in the apricot jam. Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture alternately with warmed milk mixture using a spatula. Pour batter into a greased, 1 quart oven-proof baking dish.
    3
    Bake approximately 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
    4
    Place cream, butter, 1/2 cup sugar, and water in a saucepan and stir over moderate heat until the butter has melted and sugar is dissolved. Do not allow the mixture to boil.
    5
    Remove pudding from the oven, pierce several times with a skewer or fork, and pour the hot cream mixture immediately over the pudding. Serve hot or cold.
