Today I am going to share with you a very happy accident.
Most of my best recipes come from my creative cooking sessions (my husband may call them make the kitchen a disaster zone sessions – but he enjoys the end result!) . It must be down to the artist in me (artist, me?! Why yes look here) that means I love nothing better that trying to create something delicious from weird or random ingredients. I love to make something beautifully tasty from the unexpected.
Today’s recipe is no exception. It is rich, chocolatey and truly delicious and the easiest dessert to make EVER with a surprising vegetable ingredient!
I made this for friends recently and it was chocolatey thumbs up all round.

If you want to make it posher why not place some hidden raspberries at the bottom of the pot or add a dash or you favourite liqueur? I am sure Rum Chocolate Pots would be delicious...
