Richer Dark Chocolate version:.

11
After you take the pudding out of the microwave the second time in Step 4, add the grated chocolate and whisk the mixture.

The chocolate should melt, but if it doesn't, cook for another minute or so on low heat.

The chocolate seems to thicken the pudding further and you will probably need to add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of milk to thin it.
