I am starting to think about Christmas dinner, and I may need to make a second dessert - my BIL may well be coming to stay this year (my MIL is terminally ill, and we are fairly sure she won't be with us by Christmas, and he has no-one else, so I want to make it as good a day as it can be, for him and for dh).
I have bought a Christmas pudding, but it is only a small one, as we usually don't have any room left for pudding - but I am worrying that this will be insufficient for 6 of us, and I will look undercatered and mean.
One option would be to make a pavlova - I know BIL likes them - but I don't want to spend Christmas Eve making it (and worrying about it), because I will also be doing all the veg, making the stuffing, gravy and sauces, and the brandy butter, as well as boiling and glazing a gammon joint for Boxing day - and the thought of adding a pavlova into all that stress is Just Too Much.
So if I make it on the 23rd, will it keep in the fridge until Christmas Day/Boxing day?
