The Year of Chocolate Desserts challenge is almost complete!  November's dessert is Chocolaty Rice Pudding (recipe here).

I was dreading this dessert for two reasons.  One, I'm not a fan of rice pudding.  Two, I can't make rice.  I literally can't do it.  I mess it up every time.  Every.  Time.  I never get the rice to water ratio right.  The rice is always either soupy or crunchy.  So, I don't make rice. 

It was a Thanksgiving miracle that I was able to correctly make the rice and the pudding. 

This turned out how I expected.  It was ok, but keep in mind I'm not a rice pudding fan.  The recipe called for pistachios as a garnish, but I opted for whipped cream.  Overall, not bad.  Not my favorite of the year, but not bad. 

Happy Thanksgiving!
