Chocolate Rum Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease one 10 inch Bundt pan. Place chopped nuts in the bottom of the Bundt pan.
• With an electric mixer beat cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, oil, 1/2 cup of the water, and 1/2 cup of the rum on high speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan over the top of the chopped nuts.
• Bake at 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 50 to 60 minutes.
• To Make Rum Glaze: In a saucepan combine the butter or margarine, sugar, 1/4 cup of the rum, and 1/4 cup of the water. Bring mixture to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Pour immediately over still warm cake.

Steps:

• Place the cubes of chocolate cake or cookie crumbles in the bottom of six to eight 12-ounce champagne coupes or medium-size stemmed wine glasses. Brush with the cacao rum liqueur.
• In a small saucepan, sift the cocoa powder, salt, sugar and cornstarch into the half-and-half and then begin to heat. Heat, stirring, until the mixture reaches 180 degrees F. Add the chocolate and vanilla extract and cook, stirring, for one full minute. Pass the pudding through a fine-mesh sieve and then pour directly into the champagne coupes. Place plastic wrap on the surface of the pudding and set aside to cool for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Finish with 1 teaspoon candied violets and 1 tablespoon soft whipped cream per serving.

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate in a double boiler over gently boiling water.
• Beat the egg yolks until thick and lemon colored; gradually stir in about one quarter of the melted chocolate.
• Add the yolks and chocolate to the remaining chocolate in the double boiler, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat and add the rum, almond extract and nutmeg.
• Beat the egg white until stiff peaks form.
• Gently fold into the chocolate mixture.
• Spoon into stemmed glasses or demitasse cups and chill.
• When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate curls.
