There is nothing more delicious then the sweet taste of chocolate. Today there is so many recipes that just call for instant chocolate pudding, cooked is becoming a thing of the past, but there is something about cooked chocolate that takes it to the next level. Sweet, Smooth and delicious. I topped this with Meringue; but you also could use whipped cream. This is a very simple recipe with not a lot of prep time making this a terrific treat for upcoming Thanksgiving or Christmas Holiday.
