The ideal recipe for hungry children.

You can turn this simple recipe into something a little more exotic!!! Add a dollop of whipped cream on top of the desert, drizzle some pureed strawberries over the pudding and place a whole fresh strawberry on the top. You could also add finely chopped strawberries to the mixture before it sets.
There are many variations to this recipe, you can also use the Dirt Cake Recipe and just add the green coconut, or you can use butterscotch or caramel instant pudding instead of the chocolate. You can layer the chocolate and one of the others pudding flavours. If you wish to make a cake for a children's birthday party you could design a landscape with the ingredients. For example use vanilla biscuits for sand on the beach and use blue coconut as the sea. You can decorate the beach sand with plastic toy people or animals if you can't find edible ones. There are super fish shaped sweets at Sweets from Heaven. Thanks to Hanna (one of our younger readers) who sent in the photos.
Serve with caramelised fruit, baked or steamed puddings, or ice cream!!!
These low fat raspberry squares make a perfect holiday treat. If you like, you can serve them warm as a dessert with a dollop of low-fat frozen vanilla yogurt. You can always substitute another flavor for the raspberry preserves. Cherry or apricot work well too. Be sure to use fruit preserves and not fruit jelly, which basically liquefies when cooked.
A traditional South African dish, Malva Pudding is a sweet pudding of Dutch origin. Serve hot with custard and/or ice-cream. If the pudding is to rich for you rather serve it with a light dusting of icing sugar and a few fresh strawberries (any berries will do). For chocolate malva pudding reduce the flour to 250ml and add 50ml cocoa. When making the sauce add 50ml cocoa.
A cold, refreshing dessert which the kids will enjoy, there are loads of variations on this recipe. It's ideal for a hot summer evening. Instead of the rind and juice of orange, use 50ml of tinned fruit and use the correspondingly flavoured jelly powder.
