So easy! For a bit of a different taste, I added a few pinches of cinnamon and cardamom along with the dry ingredients. A hit! Thanks for such a delicious recipe!

This pudding is awesome! It took just about as much time to make this as it takes to make instant pudding and it was so much better! It was thick and rich and creamy and delicious! My 1 1/2 year old, 3 1/2 year old, husband, and I devoured it! I will never buy pudding mix again! Thanks for a super easy and super great recipe!!

Hi all, this is a Chocolate Blancmange pudding! Of course it would jell when cold, it is intended to be eaten hot. Lovely with pears and cream, or ice cream ( kids would just love the "snow" on the top ) Very old French recipe. Happy cooking, cheers ?? Ps, if cold, pop in microwave for a few seconds, stir gently and reheat until desired temperature is reached!

I was very disappointed with this recipe. Usually recipes with rave reviews are great but this one is clearly an exception. The biggest problem was that there was almost no taste, I could barely taste the chocolate. Also, about an hour after I made it, it congealed and formed a thick jelly, thicker than jello. I definitely recommend finding a diferrent recipe.
