You are right that it is very different from American pudding, but to me it looks infinitely better! Gooey, rich, and cocoa-y!

Our regular "pudding" is just milk/cream, sugar and chocolate thickened with gelatin, sort of like a heavy version of Panna cotta but not as good :) The textural variation of yours is very appealing.<BR/><BR/>Great story behind your chocolate pudding.
