Chocolate Pudding Recipe
This chocolate pudding is so easy to make and tastes
delicious. I make this if I have friends or family drop by as I usually have
the ingredients hanging around the kitchen. You can make different versions
such as jaffa by adding some orange zest or mocha by adding some coffee. Adding
some dried chilli flakes is also a wonderful variation if you want to spice
things up... maybe when your lover drops by next time... Enjoy!
The recipe is
from the Australian Good Taste magazine - June 2006, page 90.
