My husband wanted some chocolate pudding tonight. Since I’m trying to stop using the sugar-free pudding mix in the stores because of undesirable ingredients, I started to throw together this recipe using what I had on hand and using a traditional sugar-based pudding recipe in an old cookbook. This is similar to a mousse in [...]

Here’s a link to that delicious recipe for anyone interested in taking a peek: http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/pumpkin_bake.html My recipe is very light and fluffy. Much less dense than Linda’s.
