Chocolate pudding! Melissa Clark goes on an all-out quest to discover the chocolate pudding of her dreams in her piece You Call That Pudding, Grandma?. She comes back with not one but four decadent recipes, including Milk Chocolate-Banana Pudding and Extra-Bittersweet Chocolate Pots de Crème. We're bookmarking this one for sure.
More from the small but excellent Dining In section below, including Yucatán tacos from the Minimalist, and the spring risotto served to the Pope this past week during his visit to the States.
I once was served a restaurant dessert called "Country Chocolate Pudding." It was warm and creamy, but firm enough to hold its own shape on the dish. I've looked and looked for a recipe for something like this, but never found it. Any ideas?

Take a look at Clark's article, Julie - it might have been a pot de crème like she talks about here, or a warm mousse.

Thanks, Faith. No, it definitely wasn't a pot de creme or a mousse -- this was sturdier stuff. It definitely had some kind of starch component... I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!
