TWD: Split Pudding


This week's Tuesdays with Dorie is Split Pudding chosen by Garrett of Flavor of Vanilla. I love pudding so I was pretty glad to be making this. I especially like the timing of this since I had extra ganache from last week to reuse. I didn't do this in the food processor because last time I made something liquidy in it, it was a disaster. Frankly, I don't think the food processor was made for liquids. I just whisked it for the beginning part. After it thickened up and it was time to add the butter and vanilla, I threw it in the Blend Tech and finished it up in that. It worked beautifully.



I opted to serve it in wine glasses and martini glasses so it would look pretty. For some reason, the plastic wrap left weird marks on the top. It also separated funny once I started eating it. I'm not sure why, but the vanilla part seemed to slip right off the top of the chocolate. Frankly, I wasn't that impressed with this. The vanilla alone was fine. The chocolate alone was fine. But together it was just meh. I probably won't be making this again, but oh well.

Yeah, Good, but not worth all the effort. Meh! is a good description. Looks pretty in the glasses tho.

I love the one in the martini glass! So pretty! I had to make this twice to get it right.
