Chocolate Pudding

You should be all aware by now that I have an adorable sister, with whom I get into petty fights, euh, I wouldn't say everyday, but most probably every other hour or so! That is an overstatement! But nevermind! The reason why I am mentioning [again, but not for the same reason, I suppose!] about my sister today is because, this post is related to her in every way! She's the one who craved for and actually made this chocolate pudding! And for her first take on baking, I should agree that she's done a very good job indeed! I must also quote that the pudding, was light, fluffy, neither too sweet nor too bland, just the right amount of sugar!

The recipe actually comes from the cookbook I've been mentioning lately, Cooking for One cookbook! Quite easy a recipe, but my sister has no idea of any cooking techniques, no how-to knowledge, and I reckon she's been awesome at making this!

So if you're feeling chocolatey today, then keep reading!

Equipment:
  • Kitchen Scale
  • Measuring Spoons

Methods:
  • Preheat the oven to 200˚C/400˚F. Put the dark chocolate to in bowl set over a pan of simmering water (Double boiler/bain marie).
