Tapioca pudding is a favorite of mine. This old recipe of mine, will knock your socks off. I sold thousands of portions back in my restaurant days.
Tapioca Pudding, with chocolate and coconut
In a saucepan, place
3 tablespoons tapioca
1/2 cup sugar
In three cups of milk, add one egg, and beat together
Add this to the dry ingredients, and stir well. Let sit for 5 or more minutes, stirring a couple of times.
On medium heat, bring to a rapid boil. Stir often
Chop, and add in, 4 squares Baker's unsweetened chocolate. Mix well until it disolves.
Add in 1/2 cup Baker's coconut, and mix in well.
Remove from the heat. Stir in 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract.
Cool in pan for 15 min. Transfer to a glass bowl, or into individual ramekins. Place plastic wrap on top, pressed against the pudding, to prevent a 'skin' from forming.
Chill, and serve.
