CHOCOLATE PUDDING

This homemade creamy chocolate pudding is what dreams are made of. It is so much better than the packet stuff. It’s rich, it’s thick and it’s completely irresistible. This pudding is reminiscent of a beautiful chocolate mousse, but with a thicker texture and a better depth of flavour (in my opinion). It’s my favourite dessert. You could also use it to make a delicious layered parfait or trifle.

• 2 cups of milk
• 4 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp cacao
