Chocolate pudding | čokoladni puding

I am four years old and sitting at the wooden table in my grandmother's kitchen in Slavonia, northern Croatia. I'm on holiday there from Australia with my mum. My legs are zig-zagging under the table from excitement because I know that I'm about to be served my absolute favourite dish - chocolate pudding with red currants - and not the packet stuff, this is the real thing.

My gran puts the ceramic dish in front of me, the sprig of red currants from her garden laid across the silken chocolate top. I don't wait long. My spoon dives in, careful to get one red currant into the spoonful of pudding so that the currant erupts in my mouth.

The pudding is smooth, cool, rich and just perfect. And here's the recipe, I hope you love this recipe as much as I do. Any kind of tart, berry fruit works well as a topping and because I couldn't find red currants I used raspberries and freeze-dried strawberries.

Let me know if you tried this chocolatey treat and what you thought?

Dobar Tek! Zivjeli! (Bon Appetit! Cheers and let's live!)
