Melissa from Its Melissa’s Kitchen picked… Chocolate pudding for this week’s Tuesdays with Dorie challenge from Dorie Greenspan’s ‘Baking: from my Home to Yours.’ I was happy with the choice, as chocolate pudding is one of my all time favourite comfort food and my whole family loves it.
I wouldn’t have thought to use a food processor to making pudding. With a saucepan, bowl and a whisk, I can whip up my tried and true chocolate pudding recipe in no time. I was a bit concerned that once I poured the hot milk into the food processor it would overflow but it just made it. The recipe was quite easy to follow but too time consuming for me and then there was the food processor clean up.
The taste is absolutely creamy, rich, and dense with chocolate delicious! Is it worth the hassle to make it? Absolutely! But next time I would skip the food processor part and adapt the recipe to my method of making pudding.
Thanks Melissa for choosing a family favourite. Your can find the recipe on page 383 of the book or at It’s Melissa’s Kitchen. The TWD Bakers are serving up their chocolate pudding at Tuesdays with Dorie.
Love how we can take what we learn here and adapt it to fit our own styles. Yay for baking clubs!
However you make it, I’m glad it was a family favorite!
Wow! Those look so smooth and creamy and delicious! My mouth is watering!
I’m glad you didn’t suffer the dreaded food processor chocolate explosion. 😉 Looks delicious.
I’m going to try the hand blender next time…less mess!
I didn’t think my FP would hold everything, so I used the KA mixer. The pics of the pudding look very tempting. Nice job!
yum! It looks delicious! Great job!
Great job, I usually use a whisk for pudding, too. Your looks wonderful!
Speaking of milk running out of the food processor… when I got the full amount of milk in and was mixing it, it ran out the top, then when I stopped mixing, it ran out the bottom! so you were right to be concerned. Glad it worked OK for you.
Your pudding looks velvety and delish!
Love the photo! I think next time I will make mine with a whisk, too, rather than all that back and forth with the food processor.
Well done! I administered a few changes to the recipe as well. Seems that everyone really enjoyed this one!
this is so tempting!! i love it!!everytime i see tuesday’s with dorie’s recipes.;sometimes i wonder what the hell am i waiting for to join..hehehe
Your pudding looks delicious! I loved the pudding, too.
I tried to scoop some of the pudding out, but my spoon wouldn’t go through the screen. YUM!
Hey there again! Just wanted to let you know that I have a blog award for you on my blog! I love visiting your blog every week!
The food processor piece seemed like a bit of overkill to me too, especially since mine’s not industrial sized and would likely have had capacity issues. Your pudding looks luscious.
