IN PRAISE OF PUDDING / DARK CHOCOLATE PUDDING RECIPE

chocolate pudding [1]I’m not exactly sure when it happened but quite some time ago chocolate pudding fell from favor. Could it have been the ascendancy of fancy French chocolate mousse that rang the death knell for chocolate pudding as we knew it?

Or maybe it was misguided notions like Shake-a-Pudd’n.

Yes we did that. The Sullivan boys were the envy of the lunchroom. Well, I think it was envy…

No use mourning the past. Homemade chocolate pudding has all the creamy, quivery goodness of the halcyon days of youth.

Here’s how we do it:

6. Pour the pudding into serving glasses. Let cool for 5 minutes, then cover and refrigerate for at least two hours, until ready to serve.

3/4 c. heavy cream
2 T. confectioners’ sugar

In a cold bowl with cold beaters, beat the cream until it increases in volume and becomes frothy.  Add the sugar and vanilla and continue to beat until soft peaks form.
