Make chocolate pudding, of course! Pudding ingredients are basic and usually on-hand, and Aldie and I shared a wickedly good afternoon making this batch, based on a recipe from The Gourmet Cookbook. Alden loves to help in the kitchen, not only with the cooking but with the cleaning up of the pots and pans as well.
An Easy Chocolate Pudding Recipe
This homemade chocolate pudding is easy to quickly put together. The only tricky part is slowly tempering a beaten egg with a hot cocoa mixture. By tempering the beaten egg, we slowly heat it up by adding a small amount of hot cocoa mixture to it at a time. This way, the egg doesn’t cook and curdle in the chocolate pudding. Then, you need to pour the chocolate pudding into individual ramekins and chill for a few hours before it’s officially ready to eat.
