Mohr Im Hemd (Austrian Chocolate Hazelnut Pudding)

evelyn/athens's Note:

Our first day in Salzburg and we were famished. This was one of the desserts we ordered at a Gasthaus near our hotel. Delicious. Much like the molten cakes in fashion. This version was picked up at Global Gourmet.

Wonderful dessert! Much easier then Molten cakes, dessert one that is guest worthy. Made as posted resulting in a lovely dessert that tastes fabulous - makes for great presentation. Thank you evelyn.
