Notes

Notes
  1. Mix the cocoa powder and the sugar, this way we don't end up with lumps in pudding.
  2. Stir vigorously to incorporate the chocolate.
  3. Check for sweetness. Add more sugar if you want it sweeter. But I would recommend that you start with not too sweet and gradually add sugar, honey or maple syrup as you feel needed.
