Hi - I've had other people mention this, and I honestly don't know what's going on. My guess is that it may not boil when you're using a double boiler, as the recipe instructs. That's the safest way to make it, and how I made it for a long time, though for a while now I've just made it directly over the heat in a heavy stockpot. It does come to a boil that way. I have it in my notes that it had also come to a boil when using a double boiler, but I could just be flat wrong about that. As long as it does thicken the end result will be just fine. Sorry for the confusion...

I plan to make it Thursday afternoon and freeze it in a chocolate cookie crumb crust ( I can tolerate those fine) as a reward for going through my colonoscopy Thurs. morning !

Hey everyone - I've been meaning to post that the next day after I made this, I didn't really like it frozen. The texture changed or something. When I first got it out of the ice cream maker, it was smooth and like a custard/soft serve type ice cream. The next day it was not really gritty, but not smooth. Anyway, I didn't like it. I don't know if I did something wrong or what. I think I'll just stick with the pudding from now on unless I plan on serving the ice cream right away, because I've never had a problem with the pudding the next day.
Sorry if I encouraged anyone else to do this and the same thing happened to you. And if it didn't - lucky you!

Same here Mags! Didn't care for the frozen texture. At least you didn't have a flood in your fridge like I did! (See previous post) I'm going to give it another try and just keep the pudding consistency in a cookie or graham cracker crust. I DO love my chocolate!!

Now I know that works! Have you tried the chocolate version of the Old-Fashioned Banana Cream Pie in Eating for IBS? Oh my, my - Oh Hell Yes!!! That is to die for!! It tastes pretty much the same as the pudding, but looking at the recipe it's a little different. You have to try this if you haven't already - I promise it makes up for the frozen advice.

Will definitely have to try the chocolate version of that pie you mentioned- I am stockpiling breads in my freezer in anticipation of the coming school year ( I teach special ed.) I know I'll be needing a chocolate fix and want something safe in the house to eat, so over the past 2 days I've made 2 loaves of banana bread with chocolate chips and 2 loaves of the chocolate applesauce bread.Just preparing for the stress!!
