Chocolate Cream Pudding

This has a rich chocolate flavor but was a little sweeter than I would have preferred.

Rich and creamy. I forgot how good real pudding tastes!

Great

The amount of sugar is arguably to taste, and you can't know until you try it whether your tastes are for sweeter or no. I made this today for my husband, and it's fantastic. If you're unfamiliar with how to make these kinds of custards, then you are naturally going to have some egg bits. It's ok -- strain the mixture at the end, and then chill it. If you allow your mixture to boil BEFORE you add the eggs, then stir it off the heat until it ceases to boil, or you will scramble your eggs every time. I did double or triple the chocolate in this recipe -- had to use a mixture of 1 baker's square and the rest chips, so I guesstimated. Thanks for the recipe!
