Chocolate Self-Saucing Pudding is the perfect chocolatey dessert to enjoy on a cold winters night. It is a great family friendly dessert that everyone loves, especially in my house.
When the pudding is baking, the baked chocolate smell fills the house and makes everyone excited to have a yummy chocolate dessert after dinner.
IDDSI Testing - Level 5 Minced and Moist
To make the pudding a minced and moist consistency, mix the sauce from the pudding in with the cake. Add water or custard to the pudding to help combine to the desired consistency.
A Level 5 consistency is soft and moist, requires minimal chewing and can be mashed with pressure applied from a fork.
Remember to test the food consistency using the IDDSI Spoon Tilt Test and Fork Drip Test to ensure it complies with the IDDSI Level 5 Minced and Moist consistency.
