No Cook Chocolate Pudding

One of the best things I did for myself a few years ago is join a weekly Mah Jongg group. I have enjoyed getting to know these women and they graciously try all my treats! Tonight we had Danielle Walker’s No Cook Chocolate Pudding. The texture, I was told, was like a ganache and the taste is a dark chocolate. Not sweet and intense. A hit!
