Chocolate Puddings And Desserts
There’s nothing quite as lush as a chocolate pudding or dessert. They are usually some of the first to disappear from the dessert trolley. Luckily it’s easy to make your own chocolate puddings and desserts and everyone will love you for it. Just pick one or two of the featured recipes below.
Chocolate Puddings And Desserts
Chocolate and Cheese Desserts
At first glance chocolate and cheese isn’t the most obvious combination. Not until you start thinking about chocolate cheesecake that is. You’ll find cheesecakes for sure in this chocolate puddings and desserts collection, but there’s so much more.
The new chocolate Philadelphia has caused quite a stir. Everyone seems to love it. The Italian classics, mascarpone and ricotta also appear several times as does goat’s cheese. I’m very pleased about this as it turned out to be a surprisingly good partner for chocolate in the savoury chocolate vegetarian recipe collection.
Marble Cheesecake
Cheesecake is a popular choice. This one is from first timer Vivian Pang Kitchen and it’s a real stunner. Marble cheesecake – need I say more!
Mascarpone Fruit Curd Tarts With Chocolate Layer
I was sort of regretting I’d already blogged about my chocolate cheesecake, but actually it was good to try something a bit different My mascarpone and apple curd tarts with their hidden chocolate layer are really good. They’re something I’ll be making again, using whatever my latest fruit curd happens to be. Rhubarb would be good.
Individual Tiramisu
Proper Foodie kicks things off with one of CT’s favourite desserts. The best Tiramisu is an Italian classic transformed into individual glasses of scrumptiousness.
Eggless Tiramisu
I know someone in this household who would love me to make this perfect eggless tiramisu from Jo’s Kitchen Larder. I won’t give away the secret, but this version does sound rather lush.
Snickers Cheesecake Loaf
Jac of Tinned Tomatoes has been promising to make something for We Should Cocoa for such a long time. So this morning, I was truly shocked to discover that she had actually done it, albeit a little late! Well, it was so worth the wait, just look at her Snickers cheesecake loaf – see this and salivate
Chocolate Dipped Cannoli
For something completely different, Janice of Farmersgirl Kitchen came up with these Sicilian inspired chocolate dipped cannoli. Filled with Amaretto, chocolate and ricotta, these had me going weak at the knees.
Chocolate Swirl Cake
I’m just wondering how fast I can get over to New Zealand as I know there is the most scrumptious chocolate swirl cake hiding in The KitchenMaid‘s fridge. The question is, why did it take her so long to make it?
Nutella Cheesecake
Nutella cheesecake from Apply to Face Blog
Chocolate Orange Cheesecake (vegan)
You’ll find classic flavours in this indulgent vegan treat. It’s a vegan chocolate orange cheesecake from The Baking Explorer. Kat even made her own chocolate orange segments.
Black, White Or Not Cheesecakes
These black, white or not cheesecakes from Ros of The more than occasional baker are sublime. Not only did she get cheese and chocolate into these lovely layers, but she also sneaked some of her favourite peanut butter too. Then to top it all (literally), she made some cute little gold chocolate bars.
Tia Maria Chocolate Cheesecake Pots
How about these gorgeous Tia Maria chocolate cheesecake pots to finish off a dinner party dessert? Head over to Everyday Healthy Recipes to find out how to prepare them.
Ricotta Chocolate Cake
Alida over at My Little Italian Kitchen makes the most delectable Italian confectionery. This ricotta chocolate cake with its layers of white and dark reminds me a bit of my black bottomed cupcakes only much more elegant.
Chocolate Tarts
Goat’s Cheese Chocolate Tarts
Goat’s cheese and chocolate may not be the most obvious of combinations, but they go surprisingly well together. Dark chocolate mousse oozing with salty goat’s cheese in a wonderful flaky pastry case. If you like the combination of salt and sweet, you have to try these goat’s cheese chocolate tarts.
Ginger & Dark Chocolate Tart
This no-bake lemon, ginger & dark chocolate tart from The Gluten Free Alchemist looks so delectable I’m dying to sink my teeth into it, even if it’s not ice-cream. Kate describes this gluten-free delight as an explosion of textures and flavours exciting each and every taste bud.
Rich Chocolate Tarts
These rich chocolate tarts have a crisp, buttery, flaky pastry which melts in the mouth. Not a soggy bottom in sight. The filling is rich and creamy and has a hint of salted caramel.
Gluten-Free Salted Chocolate Tart
I reckon there are probably worse ways to go than death by chocolate. A slice or two of this rich and smooth salted chocolate tart from Gluterama would hopefully not be it, but would be very welcome. It’s gluten free too of course.
Middle Eastern Chocolate Tart
The Middle Eastern flavours has me head over heals in love with this chocolate tart with cardamom, apricots and rose petals from Eb at Easy Peasy Foodie.
Vegan Chocolate Tart
Next comes another exquisite buttery chocolate delight. Kat from The Baking Explorer brings us this cardamom & sea salt chocolate tart. Both vegan and gluten free, this is a tart that all can enjoy.
Rosewater Rice And Chocolate Coconut Tarts
Pastry cases made out of desiccated coconut and egg whites was another new one on me and it’s one I’m very keen to try out. Phil of As Strong As Soup made these really interesting and attractive rosewater, rice and chocolate tarts. And the bonus is they’re gluten-free.
Other Chocolate Desserts
Chocolate Marquise
Part chocolate cake, part chocolate mousse, this is one very decadent dessert. Chocolate marquise from The Hedgecombers.
Gateau Au Chocolat De Nancy (gluten-free)
A classic French almost flourless cake from As Strong As Soup. Most unusually, his gâteau au chocolat de Nancy contains potato flour, which makes it happily gluten-free.
Chocolate Crunch Meringues
Inability to resist. Chocolate crunch meringues from Charlotte’s Lively Kitchen.
Double Chocolate Pavlova
Another irresistible double chocolate pavlova with Nutella cream & Maltesers from Jo’s Kitchen Larder.
Crème Au Chocolat
If you fancy viewing some stunning French sunsets and finding out what this Crème au Chocolat has to do with Proust, then head over to Phil’s blog As Strong As Soup.
Chocolate Avocado Pudding
The next no-bake dessert is this vegan chocolate avocado pudding from Bryony – Perfectly Imperfect Mama. It looks really decadent, but is in fact relatively healthy.
Healthy Chocolate Dessert
If you like your chocolate desserts, but are worried about the fat content, how about trying this healthy chocolate dessert with quinoa & sweet potato? I’m intrigued by the ingredients, they’re right up my street. Thanks to Monika at Everyday Healthy Recipes for this fantabulous idea.
Black Garlic Chocolate Mousse
For something completely left field, The KitchenMaid is sharing black garlic chocolate mousse with black garlic toffee. Lucy tells us not to be afraid “black garlic just deepens and enriches the chocolate flavours”. I’m intrigued. Now, I just need to get my hands on some fermented black garlic.
Chocolate Banana Mousse
Chocolate mousse is a firm favourite with pretty much everyone I know. This chocolate banana mousse from Everyday Healthy Recipes not only looks scrumptious, but it’s vegan too, so everyone can enjoy it.
Three Layered Chocolate Jellies
If you ever need an elegant dinner party dessert, these three layered chocolate jellies from Searching for Spice might be just the thing. They’re vegetarian friendly so I’d be able to tuck in too – hint hint Corina.
No Bake Dessert Pots
Quick desserts put together in a jar for picnics are a fabulous idea from Claire at She Eats. These three ingredient no bake dessert pots can be put together in no time and contains rich chocolate spread. I’m in.
Chocolate Puddings
By chocolate puddings, I mean baked or cooked sweet chocolate creations that you serve hot. Think crumbles, chocolate lava puds and self-saucing chocolate pudding.
Chocolate Custard
If you’ve never made your own chocolate custard, you can find out how at Charlotte’s Lively Kitchen.
Self Saucing Malteser Mug Cake
This self saucing Malteser mug cake from Sarah at Tales from the Kitchen Shed is, and I quote, “the best individual self saucing pudding recipe ever”!
Chocolate Crumble
This chocolate crumble from Caroline Makes has me totally sold.
Chocolate Bread And Butter Pudding
These hot cross bun chocolate bread and butter pudding may not be quite what you’d expect at this time of year, but there were hot cross buns languishing in the freezer at Caroline Makes, so what was she meant to do?
White Chocolate Cardamom Rice Pudding
And just in time Jill from Lapin D’Or and More got in with her exotic white chocolate and cardamom rice pudding with rose and raspberry sauce. Creamy rice pudding with a pool of red sauce made with rose petal jam sounds like it would satisfy my inner child as well as my more sophisticated adult self.

Update 2025
I originally published this post as a collection of summer chocolate recipes for We Should Cocoa. Now I’ve updated it to make it more useful. I’ve amalgamated it with a few other posts, removed dead recipes, improved images, added titles, more information and some new recipes.
Even though i have not participated as much in recent years, I genuinely am sad to learn that WSC is coming to an end. You truly have been a stellar host and I am so amazed to learn it is eight years old. Even though I don’t eat chocoalte much, the archive of chocolate recipes you have will continue to be a source of inspiration. It is a pleasure to be joining in for the last time and thank you for letting me know so that I could be part of its ‘farewell’ party.
Thank you Shaheen and I’m so glad to have you on board for the final chocolate party. Despite you’re only partial tolerance to chocolate, you’ve entered some fabulous recipes over the years.
Wish I had known about this group before. If you do something new, please let me know 🙂
I didn’t know it was such a well kept secret Tandy. I shall miss it after eight years, but it’s also time to say goodbye. It’s unlikely I’ll be starting up anything new, but if I do I’ll let you know.
so many delicious sounding chocolate recipes here. can’t wait to check them all out. thanks for hosting. this is my first and obviously only:=) join-up with Weshouldcocoa. 8 years is a good slog. cheers and have fun sherry
Thanks for joining in with your first and last #WeShouldCocoa Sherry 🙂
I haven’t been a regular here, but I will
miss We Should Cocoa. I remember being a bit of a lurker in the early days, too shy to comment (what changed days now!) But I loved seeing all the lovely baking and discovering new blogs. Thanks for including my chocolate orange traybake in the round up! Nickki x
Always happy to have chocolate loving lurkers Nickki, but nice that you came out of the woodwork too 😀
So sad this is ending, but glad I could be part of the final one!
Thanks for joining in one last time Kat and for being a part of it for so long.
This really is the end of a blogging era. I haven’t had time to play We Should Cocoa for a long time, but had to do so for the final time. It’s been such a pleasure joining you over the years with the chocolate challenges and it’s pushed me to develop some recipes that I would never have made. So thank you for all the fun over the years.
Thanks Janice and thank you too for being a part of it for so very long. It’s been fun, but no-one seems to have time any more to take part in challenges. It’s sad, but it feels like the right time to let go.
Sad to say goodbye to We Should Cocoa. 8 Years has passed so quickly. Haven’t joined in for a while, but have always looked at the monthly entries and drooled over the gorgeous chocolate delights. Am joining in for the final challenge, and that you Choclette for all your hard work.
How lovely to have you on board for the final chocolate party Snowy.
I’m sad to see this linky go as I’ve enjoyed adding my chocolate recipes as well as looking at everyone else’s! Glad I have finally made a chocolate recipe which I can link up in time to join the last chocolate extravaganza!
Lovely to have you join in for the final #WeShouldCocoa Cat. Always look forward to your entries.
Eight years of #WeShouldCocoa, what a fantastic anniversary! I will do my very best to join in with the very last one Choclette! It’s s such a shame to wave good bye to one of the most delectable bloggers linky out there though 🙁
Thanks Jo. Glad to have you on board. And yes, it is sad, but all good things ….!
Those eight years have sped by so fast, haven’t they? SO MUCH chocolate deliciousness across those years!
They really have Kavey. It’s been one big chocolatey blast. Hope you’ll join in for this final anniversary edition.
We Should Cocoa has been the fine home for a treasure trove of delicious, chocolatey recipes over the years and I’m very grateful that you’ve kept it alive for so long. For old times’ sake I’ll do my very, very best to drag one last chocolate recipe out of my foggy brain.
Oh yes, please do Phil. That would be fantastic.
Aw what a shame Choclette, but I’ll certainly be linking up a chocolate creation this next month 😀
Angela xx
Hooray Angela. I’m really please as you’ve been joining in with #WeshouldCocoa for a long time now.
Only made poeple would be making chocolate in the Uk just now if they didnt have to. Im one of them 🙂 Sorry this is the last one I always meant to link up more and now its too late. Hope this last one is fabulous, Ill be coming back to check for sure
Thanks Jacqui. The good thing about #WeShouldCocoa is that it will always be there. Many of the posts from the early days right up to the present are still being looked at and the various links followed.
So sad to see We Should Cocoa ending! I hope I can link up with the last one!
Oh, I hope so too Kat. You’ve been linking up for years, it would be good to have you on board for the final one.
Oh what a shame…..let’s make sure it goes out with a bang!!!!Thankyou for all your hard work.I will be linking up for a last hurrah!
I look forward to your entry and thank you for sharing so many of your recipes. I’m hoping for a good turn out for this last #WeShouldCocoa chocolate party.
Oh no – I am so sad to hear you are winding up the event but you have done an amazing job to keep it going so long. These chocolate treats look great. I am now planning some chocolate treats for this month to send off WSC in style.
Hooray Johanna. You’ve been a major part of WSC for so long. It’s been good fun and I’m feeling a bit sad too, but it also feels time to let go.
Such a lovely round up and so tempting! I know I don’t manage to join in every month but I will miss it. I wasn’t planning any new recipes this month but I will make an effort now and try to join in, even if it just gives me an excuse to remake and republish one of my old chocolate recipes!
Yay, sounds like a plan Corina. I’m feeling a bit sad about it, eight years is a long time, but it also feels as though it’s run its course.
Such a yummy chocolate summer! That white forest cake looks stunning.
It really does look good Angie and cherries are such a glorious summer delight.
