If you are a chocolate superfreak like me, you will love this Silky Chocolate Pudding with Rum. The pudding is delicate and the Rum magnifies the chocolate taste into an explosive craving that you will recognize when you taste it. Garnish with some almond flakes to enjoy a nice crunch that balances ego with id!
This recipe is easy and quick to make. All you need is about 15 minutes, a few common ingredients and a small saucepan.
Rum
As with my Easy Eggless Tiramisu recipe, I am using alcohol-free Aroma Rum (which is also called fragrance or flavor of Rum). Don’t worry, the joining of chocolate with rum flavor is terrific. Naturally, you can always use real rum as a substitute—I often do that too!
Dark Chocolate
For my tastes, I like a Dark Chocolate that has 72% cocoa. You are safe with anything above 60% to keep the chocolate and rum combo and taste bud explosions maximized.
