Cottage pudding is: a traditional American dessert consisting of a plain, dense butter cake served with a sweet sauce, "glaze," or custard poured over it.

The glaze is generally cornstarch based and flavored with sugar, vanilla, chocolate, butterscotch, or one of a variety of fruit flavors such as lemon or strawberry.

Cottage pudding can be, "baked over a fruit base," with a recipe from Fannie Farmer resulting in a dessert similar——to a fruit cobbler, as in the recipe for Apple Pan Dowdy in The Fannie Farmer Cookbook.
