Eggless Chocolate Pudding

Being a food blogger, I'm always curious to try on making different
types of food with a twist. I'm always eager to present a new dish on my
dining table. It has become an obsession for me and I feel its a never
ending creativity in my life. Be it sweets, desserts, drinks, starters,
main course, you can find all the tested recipes from my kitchen right
here on this page. Sometimes I really wonder, had I not started this
food blog, life would have been so different. As I'm not much of a TV
person, I don't know what I would have done to take the daily stress out
of my life.
Frankly speaking, I'm not a sweet loving person, but I'm obsessed with making all things sweets and desserts and doing lots of baking these days. I'm also hesitant to try as many recipes as I would like to, looking into the amount of sugar that goes into making it and my bulging tummy of late, hehehe. My hubby too avoids eating these, as he too isn't a fan of all things sugar.
Nowadays, in order to carry out with my passion and to make it healthy for my family as well, I've started using sugar free powder from Natura, a healthier alternative to regular sugar. "Sugarfree Natura" gives the same sweetness as of regular sugar without any added calories.
Today, I'm sharing a recipe of a delicious dessert that is not only eggless but sugarfree as well and was a hit in my family - Eggless Chocolate Pudding.
