A few words about the English dessert

Chocolate pudding (see photo in the article) is a traditional British dish. The recipe for its preparation was passed down from generation to generation. This classic delicacy consists of flour, eggs, milk and granulated sugar. However, culinary experts from different countries interpret the dessert in different ways, adding fresh fruits, nuts, berries, vanillin and aromatic spices to it. You can fantasize as much as you like, and serving the delicacy does not have to be in molds.

In our country, chocolate pudding is not very popular. People prefer to purchase ready-made powder mixtures, which are difficult to name. The benefits of such a product are not mentioned at all. Its composition does not shine with natural ingredients - all preservatives, harmful food additives and dangerous dyes.

As a result, one conclusion suggests itself - homemade desserts will never compare with store-bought ones. Based on the above, we propose to work together to create a delicate and soft chocolate treat. It is allowed to be used by both adults and children.

Chocolate pudding: recipe one

We immediately warn you that the dish takes a long time to prepare: the cooking time will take at least 1.5 hours. It will also take a few more hours for the pudding to harden. Write down the recipe: one and a half liters of milk, a glass of granulated sugar, two eggs, half a two-hundred-gram pack of butter, cocoa powder (two large spoons). In addition, you will need a spoonful of flour, starch (60 g), a bar of dark chocolate, vanillin, ground peanuts (10 g).

The basis

Boil a liter of milk. In a separate bowl, combine some of the sugar with starch and cocoa powder, pour in a little warm milk in a thin stream, stir with a whisk so that there are no lumps. Pour the homogeneous mass into the milk, put it on the fire and stir constantly until it becomes thick. Pour the prepared base into pastry molds and put it in the refrigerator for three hours.

Cream sauce

Beat the remaining half of the granulated sugar with the eggs and vanilla powder until foamy. Stir the flour in the milk, combine with the egg dressing and heat on the stove, remembering to stir. As soon as the mass thickens, add butter, beat thoroughly and leave in the refrigerator for half an hour.

Take out the cooled chocolate pudding and separate it from the mold using hot water. Pour the prepared creamy milk cream on top, sprinkle with ground peanuts, and decorate with strands of melted chocolate or whipped cream.

Chocolate pudding: recipe two

This cooking option is a little simpler. It contains: half a liter of milk, semolina (one hundred grams), butter (large spoon). You will also need a bar of dark chocolate, vanillin and sugar. At your own discretion, you can include alcoholic drinks (liqueur, cognac or balsam), raisins or nuts in the dish.

Step-by-step preparation

If you have already learned how to make chocolate pudding, then you need to prepare the base for it. To do this, butter, vanillin, sugar and chocolate are immersed in hot milk. As soon as bubbles begin to appear, you need to carefully add semolina and boil for several minutes like porridge.

If you wish, you can add additional ingredients to the finished mass (chopped dried fruits, alcohol, nuts, berries). Let our preparation cool slightly, then immediately pour it into a mold/container (moisten the bottom of the dish with water), and refrigerate for two hours. Turn the hardened dessert over onto a plate and sprinkle with grated chocolate and coconut flakes. Cut into squares and enjoy the great taste.

Low calorie dessert

Do you like sweets, but are you afraid of harming your figure? We offer a light, delicate dessert with a minimum calorie content based on carob (a chocolate substitute). If you don't yet know how to make low-fat chocolate pudding, then our recipe will help you. Ingredients: a liter of milk with minimal fat content (or skim), corn starch (50 g), vanilla bean, egg, carob (one hundred grams). For sweetness, you can add sweetener or fruit.

Stir starch in half the milk. Boil the other half. Then add vanillin, sweetener (fruit), carob, add starch and milk and beat using a food processor. Add eggs to the mixture and cook for several minutes (stirring constantly). Refrigerate for a couple of hours to thicken. Healthy and light chocolate pudding will lift your spirits, fill you with energy and give you pleasure.

Holiday dessert

And finally, we’ll share a recipe for an exquisite vanilla-chocolate treat that will surprise you with its appearance and bright palette of taste. Ingredients required: cocoa powder (dessert spoon), butter (two spoons), vanilla bean, milk (400 ml), flour (50 g), walnuts to taste, a little cinnamon, dark chocolate (half a bar) and sugar to taste discretion. Can be supplemented with fresh berries or liqueur (optional).

Cooking process

Stir granulated sugar into the sifted flour, pour in cold milk and place on the stove. Cook until the mixture resembles thick sour cream. Add oil before turning off. Divide into two parts. Add vanillin seeds to the first, cocoa and cinnamon to the second.

You will get two masses of different shades, which should be covered with a towel and left for a few minutes. Let's move on to preparing the remaining products. Peeled nuts should be roasted and chopped. Scald the raisins with boiling water.

Now you can form the chocolate pudding, the recipe for which you just read: take tall dessert glasses, first put the white mass on the bottom, sprinkle with nuts and raisins, and grease with brown cream on top. In this order, fill the containers to the top. Decorate with grated chocolate.

After each layer, leave in the refrigerator for 6-10 minutes so that the mixture hardens and the layers do not mix.

Chocolate pudding is an incredibly tender and tasty dessert, adored by many gourmets. Every housewife can prepare it: it’s enough just to master the basic technology and remember the points that you should pay attention to when cooking.

History of pudding

England is considered the birthplace of pudding, but its popularity is high in almost all countries of the world. There is probably not a single English housewife who has not made pudding at least once in her life.

Traditionally, this dish was prepared by the whole family for Christmas, two weeks before its onset, and served on the first day of its celebration. All participants in the process had to make a wish. The dessert was prepared in a huge copper cauldron in a water bath from flour, granulated sugar, eggs and milk with the addition of dried fruits and nuts. It was then left to infuse in a cool place until Christmas.

There is still a tradition in Great Britain according to which a Christmas lunch or dinner is not complete without this sweet dish. And every family has its own secrets on how to make chocolate pudding.

Since those distant times, the recipe for the dish has undergone considerable changes, and the pudding is now prepared in the oven, microwave, or steam bath - but not in a cauldron. It can be served on any holiday or on an ordinary day, both for breakfast and as a lunch dessert, and with tea for dinner. The delicious chocolate pudding, always served chilled, has become especially popular.

Cooking features

It’s easy to please your family with delicious sweets by making them at home. Like any other dish, pudding has some cooking secrets that must be taken into account:

The basis of this unique dessert is milk, to which you can add cream or instant coffee.
In order to “knit” the dough, eggs are used and flour can be replaced with starch. Moreover, the addition of starch allows the baked goods to keep their shape well, but if this is not necessary and you want to make the dough soft and tender, starch should be excluded.
The required ingredients are sugar and chocolate, which is often replaced with cocoa powder.
Vanillin and cinnamon, as well as chopped nuts, give the dish its characteristic aroma.
To further improve the taste, you can add liqueur or rum.

Any chocolate pudding has a base recipe that can be improved by showing your own ingenuity. The principle of preparing dessert is as follows:

Divide the milk into parts: heat one, leave the other cold.
Mix cold milk with sugar, flour, cocoa, eggs, vanilla and all other products.
Pour the resulting mixture into a container with hot milk, stir, and bring to a boil.
Boil the mixture for a couple of minutes over medium heat, pour into small molds and leave to cool.
Serve dessert cold.

Chocolate pudding has a calorie content of more than 120 kcal, it is nutritious and moderately fatty. To reduce the kcal value, you need to use skim milk and do not add cream to the dough.

Classic chocolate pudding

To prepare a dessert close to classic English, you will need the following products:

Sugar, half a glass;
Cocoa, 2 tbsp;
Milk, 2 partial glasses;
Eggs, 2 pcs. (use only yolks);
Corn starch, 2 tbsp;
Vanillin, 1 package;
Butter, 1 tbsp.

Preparing chocolate-vanilla classic pudding is not difficult at all:

Pour 1 glass of cold milk into a container, add starch to it, stir. Then add all the other ingredients, except butter, and beat thoroughly with a whisk.
Bring the rest of the milk to a boil, reduce the heat and pour the whipped mixture with cold milk into the pan, stirring continuously.
The mixture should boil over low heat for a couple of minutes, while stirring it with a spoon.
After the mass thickens, turn off the heat and add butter to the pan with the rest of the ingredients, mix well.
Pour the hot pudding into small containers (it is better if they are glass, but you can use ceramic ones) and leave for a while on the table or windowsill.
When the dessert has cooled, place it in the refrigerator.

Chocolate and vanilla pudding

A slightly different recipe according to which delicious chocolate-vanilla pudding is prepared in the oven.

The set of ingredients here is also different from that in the previous recipe:

Flour, 2 tbsp. with a mound;
Milk, 1 glass
Sugar, half a glass;
Eggs (both white and yolk), 4 pcs.;
Margarine, 1 tbsp;
Vanilla sugar, 1 sachet;

And again, a simple description of the process of how to make chocolate pudding:

First you need to separate the egg whites from the yolks.
Add part (more than half) of sugar to the yolks, beat with a whisk. Add flour, stir well.
Now you need to beat the whites with the rest of the sugar.
Heat the milk. Pour it into the container with the yolks, stirring continuously. Place on the fire and after boiling, simmer for a minute.
Remove the mixture from the heat, mix with the melted chocolate, stir. Add vanilla sugar and mix again.
After the resulting mass has cooled a little, add the whites to it and mix everything thoroughly again.
Preheat the oven, place a baking tray with water in it.
Grease a baking dish with margarine (can be replaced with butter), pour the mixture into it, and place in the oven at slightly below medium power.
When the pudding is ready, remove it from the mold and sprinkle with powder.

Chocolate pudding with semolina

A type of dessert such as chocolate semolina pudding has a special taste. It is prepared without eggs, on a base of half a liter of milk.

Heat the milk, mix with grated chocolate (50-70 g), sugar (half a glass), a teaspoon of butter and a small amount of salt.
The mixture must be brought to a boil, stirring continuously. Then very slowly pour semolina into it.
Cook over low heat, stirring, for 10 minutes.
Rinse the mold under running cold water, pour the hot pudding into it, let it cool, then put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours.

Chocolate pudding in the microwave

This method of baking dessert is called quick or lazy. If the average time for step-by-step cooking over a fire is an hour and a half, then this will take no more than 20 minutes.

Microwave chocolate pudding requires the following ingredients:

Flour, 2 tbsp;
The same amount of milk;
Eggs, 2 pcs.;
Margarine, 6-7 tbsp;
Sugar, 2 tbsp;
Cocoa, 4 tbsp. without slide;
Baking powder (or slaked soda), on the tip of a teaspoon.

Whisk the softened margarine with sugar and cocoa. Beat the eggs separately, add milk to them, mix. Now you need to mix the margarine and egg-milk mass and beat until smooth. Add flour in small portions, then baking powder, beat with a mixer or blender until an airy, tender mass is obtained. Grease microwave molds with water, pour the pudding dough into them, and turn on at maximum power for 7-8 minutes.

Using the same ingredients, you can make chocolate pudding in a slow cooker. You can add half a glass of semolina, only then the diagram with step-by-step recommendations will change a little. You will need to prepare it according to the recipe for semolina pudding, only use a slow cooker instead of fire.
