I was very pleased, with my menu for dinner on Friday night
This Chocolate Pudding is another keeper,
So so simple, and so so rich
Unfortunately, as it was late in the night, when I served the puddings
I forgot to take a photo with the cream on top
so you will have to use your imagination
We all know Chocolate and Orange - perfect match
This recipe stretched out to feed 8 people
It is so rich you don't need a large serving
