So I got my online order from Charlie’s Fruit Online the other day and was curious about a random fruit that was in my box – I had absolutely no idea what it was!
It looked a little like this:
After a bit of research, I discovered it’s Black Sapote, which is also known as Chocolate Pudding Fruit.
Sounds pretty good! However, I have to admit that the taste didn’t really float my boat. So I started the hunt for a recipe and found a super easy one here at Best Recipes and tinkered with it a little.
The result was great! It’s amazing that these actually contain no cocoa or chocolate, because you’d never know – that chocolatey taste is definitely there!
Next time you have some Black Sapote hanging around, you should definitely give these a go 🙂
