Chocolate Melt Pudding

 Moving to England means I have to get to use to that every british is a ” pudding” minded… haha… I mean in a good sense that they like to have their pudding anytime, on any occassion, sweet or savory, as long it’s pudding.

Chocolate Melt Pudding ussually made baked, but I just like to try a different methode ( following the ” rules”, that is). So, here is my attemped of making a the challenge.

 The April 2010 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Esther of The Lilac Kitchen. She challenged everyone to make a traditional British pudding using, if possible, a very traditional British ingredient: suet.
