This dessert is very comforting and reminds me of my childhood. The surprising texture of the almonds on top does wonders for the texture and makes it more of a "complete" dessert to me.

Time 12h35m

Yield 6 to 8 shallow coffee cups

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup warm water
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/4 cups whole milk, divided
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon dark rum
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 cup slivered almonds
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, salt and warm water. Whisk to blend and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate, 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup of the milk. Stir to blend and bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer on low heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and the remaining 1/4 cup of milk until the mixture is smooth. Stir the cornstarch into the simmering chocolate mixture and continue cooking it over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. From time to time, use a whisk to blend the pudding and assure that it is not sticking to the bottom or sides and scorching as it cooks. Remove from the heat. Taste and add the vanilla and rum. Pour the pudding into a large bowl (or, if preferred, individual coffee cups) and cover tightly with plastic wrap so a skin doesn't form on top of the pudding. The plastic wrap should directly touch the top of the pudding in the bowl or cups. Refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
  • In a medium bowl whisk the cream until thick. Alternatively, use the electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk in the sugar and vanilla until blended. Taste for sweetness and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • When ready to serve, heat the oil in a medium skillet over low heat. When the oil begins to smoke lightly, add the almonds. Cook them, stirring, from time to time, until they turn golden brown, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them from the skillet to a paper towel or a kitchen towel to drain off excess oil. Season with salt, to taste.
  • Remove the pudding from the refrigerator, discard the plastic wrap and sprinkle with the almonds. Top with dollops of the whipped cream or serve the cream on the side. Serve immediately.

ALEX'S RAW CHOCOLATE PUDDING

It may seem odd to have a banana and avocado in the same recipe, but the banana completely hides any taste of the avocado. The avocado is there simply for texture and nutritional value. Even my kids love this recipe! You can use any unsweetened milk in this recipe - almond, soy, rice, or coconut - and for a little crunch, use raw cocoa nibs instead of the cocoa powder.

Yield Makes 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

10 fresh dates, pitted and cut in quarters
10 dried figs, stems removed, cut in quarters
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons raw nut butter (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2-2 cups filtered water

Steps:

  • 1. Place the dates, figs, cocoa, nut butter (if using), vanilla, and 1 cup of water in a blender and pulse several times until the fruits begin to break down.
  • 2. Blend until smooth and creamy, slowly adding water as needed for desired consistency.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the pudding will taste. Choose raw cacao powder that is organic and unprocessed, and use fresh, ripe avocados.
  • Don't overblend the pudding: Overblending can make the pudding too thick and gritty. Blend until the ingredients are just combined and smooth.
  • Chill the pudding before serving: This will help the pudding to set and develop its full flavor.
  • Get creative with toppings: You can top the pudding with anything you like, such as fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or granola.
  • Experiment with different flavors: You can add different spices, herbs, or extracts to the pudding to create different flavor variations.
