Biscuit pudding ?

   I am not sure what to call today's recipe.  A recipe I am revisiting after almost 8 years ! I got the basic recipe from the cocoa powder packet when I was still newly married. I made it often then and friends and family equally liked it.  Recently, I had a craving for some and made it for you and me.  I hope you will enjoy it as much as I do.  Also, let me know if you can think of any other name for this pudding and leave your suggestion in the comments.  I will update the name with the most innovative and apt suggestion.



Ingredients:

Marie biscuits- 25
Milk- 1 cup
corn starch- 2 tsp
cocoa powder- 2 tbsp
sugar- 2-3 tbsp




Method:

1.In 2-3 tbsp of milk, mix the cocoa powder and corn flour without any lumps and keep aside.
2.Boil the remaining milk in a pan.
3.Add the sugar and stir to mix in well.
4.Add the cocoa corn starch mixture to this while stirring and continue stirring the entire mixture till it starts thickening.
5.When you see that it has thickened enough switch off the heat. (it shoul be little more thicker than dosa batter at this point)
6.Place one biscuit in a plate and pout a tbsp of mixture on top.
7.Place the next biscuit on top and continue for 5-6 more biscuits. Finally pour on the sides to fill any gaps.
8.Make 3 more piles like this.
9.Let it come to the room temperature and keep in a refrigerator for 1-2 hrs.
10.Serve chilled, after slicing the block.

  10. Hi! This reminded me of a biscuit cake which I used to make with my sister when I was little. Thank you for reminding me this. Mine was coffee and whipped cream involved., I think. Now, I want to make this cake which I used to make. (If I still remember how to make it !) Yours look good also!
