BEST HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE PUDDING



Best Homemade Chocolate Pudding image

As proof of my lifelong love of chocolate, I give you the recipe that is listed in my baby book as my favorite food. I still request it every year for my birthday, and I make it for St. Patrick's Day, but it's rich and creamy any day. I used to make it for an after-school "snack" when I was in junior high. Pour milk over your serving or slather whipped cream. Sprinkle toasted slivered almonds for added yumminess. I suggest small portions, especially for children. My kids love to lick the pan when I'm done. I've also had great success with this recipe in making a chocolate pie with a vanilla wafer crust (sprinkle vanilla wafer crumbs on top)
