The Recipes - Microwaveable Old School Chocolate Pudding with a Mint Custard.

 Well who doesn't love a chocolate pudding. Microwaveable as well, so it's fast and easy. Maybe too easy ha! The chocolate pudding we had to mess about with the water content to get it just right. So we had to try many samples.....that's our excuse anyway. Then there was the mint custard. Although my daughter who was five at the time and didn't like mint, would say mint was the worst thing that she had ever tasted! So we have to do a custard version just for her. Oh well more for us...i could have made it a pink colour but she would still know. Kids have amazing sensory perception. There never seems to be any of this particular chocolate pudding  left over for the next day either? Oh and it's good with custard too, and cream, and.....you choose.

Here is the recipe

The Recipes - Chocolate Cake

The Chocolate cake was a tough one to get right. After a few attempts we got the chocolate taste just right but it a was still a little dry. A this point we added milk in small proportions to both the mix and the cream and then voila! we had it just right. So as Marie Antoinette would say, "Let them eat cake." We say yes but not this one!
P.S. you don't need anything else with this one but if you are a cream lover I know that some of you will be adding a naughty dollop of cream on the side.......
