Chocolate Chestnut Dessert (a pudding that freezes well - freeze in single portions or as much as you're likely to need at one sitting)
This is very rich, you won't need much per person.
6oz dark chocolate
3oz butter
3oz castor sugar
15oz can of chestnut puree
3 tbsps rum / brandy
1/2 pint double cream
1. melt the choc in bowl over simmering water
2. cream butter and sugar together, add chestnut puree and mix
3. add melted choc, alcohol, and cream (do not whip the cream)
4. pour into bowl / portion packs / etc, put in fridge to set
5. if freezing, then put in freezer
You could also use it as a kind of ganache filling for making chocolates (see Cab's chocolate article) - leave to cool in fridge, then cut small pieces off to coat in chocolate / roll in cocoa
