I don’t know what I did wrong but this turned out more like pudding balls in a self
saucing butterscotch sauce. Yummy. But nothing like your beautiful picture. Not 
sure what I did wrong?

This is very similar to old fashioned Golden Syrup Dumplings which don’t look fried
like in this picture but sound very much like yours do Monica. Also mine only take
6-8 minutes to cook once you put them into the syrup.

Not like the picture but still was good, next time I will simmer them instead of
boiling mine started to burn.
