AMARETTO CHOCOLATE PUDDING

 

 

 

1 3/4-ounce box (cook and serve) chocolate pudding mix

2 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped

1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons milk

7 tablespoons amaretto liqueur

 

 

1/2 cup chilled whipping cream

1 tablespoon sugar

Raspberries (optional)

Chocolate curls (optional)

 

Pour dry chocolate pudding mix into heavy saucepan.

Add chopped semisweet chocolate. Gradually mix in milk

and 6 tablespoons amaretto liqueur. Stir pudding over

medium heat until chocolate melts and pudding comes to

boil and thickens. Divide pudding equally among four

3/4-cup ramekins or custard cups. Refrigerate until

cold, at least 1 hour. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.

Cover and keep refrigerated.)

 

Whip cream, sugar and remaining 1 tablespoon amaretto

liqueur in small bowl until stiff peaks form. Top

chilled pudding with large dollop of whipped cream,

then with raspberries and chocolate curls, if desired.

 

Serves 4.
