Chocolate Buttermilk Pudding

"[Photograph: Alexandra Penfold] The rich sweetness of dark chocolate pairs nicely with the tang of the buttermilk, and if you like Red Velvet cake, the effect is similar but the tartness is a little punchier. Anytime you can have homemade pudding from pan to bowl in about 20 minutes, especially on a cold snowy day, well, that's a winner for me.
