Yes, I am giving away a box full of chocolate donated by Scharffen Berger in San Francisco. Head toward the end of the post for details on how to participate.
Back in June (wow that feels like an eternity...) I was part of a food blogging panel at Evo 10 with two wonderful ladies, Jane and Helen Jane. Yep, I am not making this up. We clearly sounded like a tribe "Hi! I'm Helen!" "And I am Jane!" "And I'm Helen Jane". They were handling the blogging part of our workshop and I was doing the photography part. Lots of fun and new friendships came out of this. Honest, comfortable and packed with belly laughing punctuated conversations.
There is a myriad of ways to blog and find your peace and balance. I don't think on it much. I am thrilled to make you discover bits about my home country, new recipes and techniques. It's a place for me to practice my crafts and hopefully to give you something enjoyable to look at and tempt you as well. I put a lot of hard work and dedication into this space and it has given me so much in return. Most of all, the possibility to connect with wonderful people all over the world and be able to live all sorts of experiences.

However, when Jane sent me an email asking me if I wanted to help her organize a little party during BlogHer Food this weekend, my first reaction was "ugh...I don't really have time to plan right now" but Jane came back with the words "what if it is a swanky chocolate filled little shingdig?". My reply? "go on, I'm listening..."
I have no idea how it all happened but before I knew it, I was part of a team of talented and generous ladies getting together venue, foods, libations and gifts for a party. I got worried that we would have to sell our souls to the Devil to make it happen but Jane & Kristen calmly said "We won't do any of that. Just sit pretty and eat your chocolate. Scharffen Berger is giving us tons for the party".
I am a milk chocolate kind of gal if you must know. I don't eat that much chocolate but when I do, it's the creamy kind that gets me all tingly. Add nuts and caramel bits and I will do just about anything...

And that I did. And still do tonight as I am finishing packing for BlogHer Food. I can't wait to be there and see familiar faces and meet new ones. People I've been reading for years becoming even more real. I love that my schedule this weekend is a nice balance of work, play and unexpected.
There was a tad bit of planning to be done on the home front before heading out though. Mainly stocking the fridge with good foods and making sure that the important things were right in front of his eyes if B. opened up said fridge. There are now eight Vanilla Rice Pudding & Chocolate Panna Cotta facing him. Don't worry, he's got more nutritious foods to dig into.
I have no idea what got into me to combine panna cotta and rice pudding except my deepest love for both. I figured with the weather finally changing a bit we could try to get into Fall mood a little too and start simmering, stirring, chocolating again after the heat of the summer. It does feel nice to finally have that little crisp in the air as the sun rises over the water.

So I am not going to tell you that this post was made possible by the folks at Scharffen Berger who sent me chocolate because I would have made this recipe without them sending chocolate anyway. But...I would have used high quality chocolate like theirs nonetheless specifically because chocolate is in the front seat in this one.
What I am going to tell you is that they make some mighty fine chocolates and by using the 70% bittersweet chocolate bars, the panna cotta packed a good chocolate punch while remaining smooth as silk. To make sure you get the chance to feel the way we feel after sharing one of these, I asked if they'd let me have more chocolate to give away to one of you. I asked for "some chocolate" and they are sending a box full.
That's also why I love them. They know how good their craft is and are all about getting us addicted to it...eheheh. Did they ask or demand I post about them? Nope. I volunteered. That was a no brainer for me. Eat chocolate and giveaway some more on your blog. Make someone else happy.

I am happy to be giving away a mixed box of Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder, 99% Cacao Unsweetened Chocolate Baking Bar, 62% Cacao Semisweet Chocolate Baking Chunks and a few of their eating bars in various percentages courtesy of Scharffen Berger. To enter, you have until Monday October 11th, midnight Easter standard time to leave a comment on this post. (No anonymous comment). The winner will be picked at random by the closest person to me in the room (not kidding) - I'll be in San Francisco until Tuesday but I will make sure to get in touch with the winner.
Vanilla Rice Pudding & Chocolate Panna Cotta:
Serve 6 to 8
For the rice pudding:
1 cup rice (really the kind you like best)
1 1/2 cups (315ml) whole milk (I used raw)
1/2 vanilla bean, split open
1/2 cup (60ml) heavy cream
1/4 cup (50gr) sugar
Pinch of salt
For the chocolate panna cotta:
1 tablespoon powdered gelatin (2 sheets gelatin)
1/4 cup water
1 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup honey
8 oz bittersweet chocolate
1 cup Greek yogurt
Cocoa nibs, dusting of cocoa powder and fresh whipped cream (optional garnish)
Prepare the rice pudding:
In a stainer, rinse the rice under cold water for a minute to remove some of its natural starch.
In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, bring the rice, milk, cream, sugar to a simmer. Scrape the seeds from inside the vanilla bean and add to the pan with the salt. Cook until tender, stirring occasionally for about 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the heat. Let cool for a few minutes and divide the pudding evenly among ramekins. Cover with a layer of plastic wrap until you are ready to pour the panna cotta on top of the rice pudding.
Prepare the panna cotta:
Place the water in small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Reserve.
In a large heavy bottomed saucepan placed over medium heat, bring the milk, heavy cream, and honey to a simmer. When the cream is hot, remove from the heat and whisk in the chocolate until melted. Add the reserved gelatin and stir until it is completely dissolved. Add the yogurt and whisk vigorously until well blended.
Divide the mixture over the rice pudding ramekins. Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes and then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving to let the cream set properly.
Garnish with cocoa nibs and whipped cream if desired.
Full disclosure:
The chocolate, cocoa powder and cocoa nibs used in this recipe were given by Scharffen Berger at no cost.

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 632 Newer› Newest»Ohhh how I want this delicious-looking dish!! And I'd take some chocolate, too ;)
I want to eat this through my screen. Someone has to invent something to facilitate this! Beautiful as always Helene.
This looks amazing.
what a wonderful post!
oh helene, I am SO delighted I was able to talk you into throwing our petite soirée together. every day the last week or so I wake up thinking, "what an amazing group of women I get to work with!" thank goodness chocolate was involved, to bribe you to join the ranks. ;)
love love love the photos and wishing you could bring some rice pudding and chocolate panna cotta on the plane. guess I'll just have to make it myself.
and, I'm saying this because I really think it and I haven't gotten any free chocolate (well, lately)...love SB's chocolate. the unsweetened cocoa is unreal. I'm addicted. their evil plan that you described totally worked.
winning chocolate would be so fun!
I recently discovered Greek yogurt and my life will never be the same. Look forward to trying this recipe.
Drooling... can you send me a new keyboard for my laptop too? This one is now drowning.
Want.
And your mad photography skills.
I am pregnant and my baby wants this gift of chocolate. Thank you!
Looks absolutely scrumptious! I love, love, love your photography.
Blessings,
~Mrs. R
Panna Cotta has been a theme for me this week. I think the universe is trying to tell me something! Time to whip a little something up in the kitchen!
As if anyone would save no to chocolate. Count me in! That looks delicious.
I love Scharffen Berger, and I think the chocolate panna cotta looks so impossibly smooth here, it looks fantastic.
Chocolate & pudding...yum! It's been a little while since I made pudding and I've never made panna cotta before but I'm definitely willing to try. Thank you Helen for sharing! I always look forward to your new posts.
WOW!! What a beautiful recipe. And the photos....sigh! You are truly brilliant! I SO BADLY want the Scharffen Berger chocolate!! I live in India, where we hardly get any great chocolates to bake with.. so usually I depend on people coming from the US or UK to get me a little! Which can never be enough.. so I hoard my good chocolate bars...:-)
Making the cinnamon rolls today! Happy Birthday to your niece...you both are lucky to have each other!
Thank you for making my days more beautiful with your posts.
What beautiful photos! The recipes look amazing too. And I would love some Schaffen Berger ... yum...
Hi Helen, your blog is an inspiration! What beautiful compositions, both in photography and in recipes! Thank you for sharing your gifts :) Erica from Apricosa
I certainly wouldn't say no to free chocolate! I don't know though if I could come up with creations a lovely as yours! It looks absolutely delicious and a panna cotta made with Greek yogurt sounds wonderful!
I have never tried Scharffen Berger before, they don't sell it where I am, but I have heard of them...I wouldn't mind winning some to give them a try!
Oh pure, rich, sultry comfort. Your creations inspire me to be great, each and every day.
Merci.
Oh also, my husband gifted me The Essence of Chocolate, the book by Scharffen Berger, it is gorgeous! Their silky chocolate pudding is HEAVEN!
You will know which country I come from when I say that the rice pudding part of this recipe is the one that draws me, then combined with excellent chocolate to make it sublime. Good ingredients are important at every level aren't they? I don't share the obsessive chocolate addiction that many people seem to have but can't deny the pleasure that a square of the extra dark, laden with cocoa solids gives as it melts over the tongue. As always your photography is exquisite. Lucky Mr B!
mmm tis looks so yum,..as always beautiful clicks,.
oh my goodness. hahahahah a box full of chocolate is the stuff dreams are made of.
love love your blog!
Fantastic! Another one of your recipes I need to try out :)
I can feel the antioxidant powered chocolate already! Enjoy the weekend and meeting fellow bloggers- what fun indeed!
I would make the most amazing things with my Scharffen Berger: cocoa, mousse, Autumn torte. And I would probably invite you over (don't let that sway you.)
This looks so amazing! I'm making chocolate ice cream sandwiches and raspberry ice cream tartufi so I'd love some new chocolate to experiment with. Have fun in San Francisco!
what a wonderful giveaway! and these pannecotta look so delicious!
All I can think is: Mmmm....chocolate....
Okay, back to reality. I associate rice pudding with Christmas but I've never combined that treat with anything but frozen raspberries. I will definitely have to try this!
Hi Helen
Love your photography = )
Love dark chocolate = )
Hope I win = )
Would love to try any chocolate recipes with this chocolate.
Blessings
Christine
looks delicious
mmm.. this looks delicious!!! :)
can't wait to give it a try!!
Awsome photos, as usual. I'd love to have that chocolate. By the way, I am experimenting on not using gelatin to make panna cotta and as soon as I find the proper texture, I will add chocolate.
Hugs fron Spain.
Ah, Chocolate! :-) I am really intrigued by your combination of panna cotta and rice pudding--it makes total sense to me (I like eating vanilla tapioca pudding + chocolate pudding), even though I would have never thought to make it myself.
chocolate+panna cotta+rice pudding...
sounds like a great combination i never would have thought of.
wow... I love rice pudding (probably comes from my mothers english background) and adore chocolate pannacotta. My solution to not being able to decide the chocolate/vanilla debate was to make chocolate rice pudding but my goodness LAYERING! My stomach is literally yelling at me to pack up, leave the office and head straight home to the kitchen. Mmmmm!
Wow! They are really generous in giving away all these chocolate! Just like you Helen! :) My husband and I (and everyone else in the family) are all time chocolate lovers! It'll be fabulous to win this! ^^
This recipe sounds delicious! Yummy high quality chocolate.
Yum. Bookmarking!
Chocolate is one of those things that really gets me going when the autumn chill hits in full glory here in Nordic. I even made this non-commercial service (pralinkartan.se on web and pralinkartan on mobile via the Layar app) where you can find nearby shops (mostly in Sweden) that sell hand made chocolate. Just because of my love to chocolate.
It looks absolutely delish. I loves me some chocolate and rice pudding. :-)
Yummm, those look phenomenal! I'm definitely going to have to get into some chocolate when I get home... there's a long list of chocolate-flavoured desserts calling my name, and this one just got added. Mmm.
What an interesting mixture!
Would be great to try that chocolate! Since I´m never very lucky in this kind of contests I´ll just try to find it here arround me :)
You have inspired me to take up photography, thank you for your beautiful pictures!
I LOVE Scharffen Berger chocolate! I even went on a tour of their factory in Berkeley before it closed. If you are in SF and have extra time, come visit Berkeley!
hmm... i tried to leave a comment earlier but it somehow got erased. i think i was rambling on and on about how your treats are such a tease for me to see in all its decadent glory but never for me to taste, particularly when they are made from chocolate. needless to say, i absolutely love your stuff.
"smooth as silk" - Helen, that sounds divine!
I'd love to be in the running to win this prize!
I haven't tried chocolate panna cotta before! that looks scrumptious!
wow! Love the look of the chocolate panna cota. I'm dying to try it out. Do hope I win the chocolates :)
Gorgeous post, beautiful photos, yum dessert!
Looks so delicious!!!
Wow, this looks soooo good...tongue hangs out of mouth...
Mmmm chocolate is my weakness. One of many.
I love these metal vintage cups, where did you get it?
And comforting chocolate panna cotta..I will try the recipe for sure.
I wonder if I'll dare... Well, who can resist to chocolate !
THANKS HELENE! Looks fantastic! Beautiful photography I admire! :) :)
I will try this definitely.
Enjoy the weekend :))
Chocolate Panna Cotta sounds fabulous! And your pictures are gorgeous, as always. It´s getting cold and blustery here.. my chocolate consumtion is increasing dramatically so I´d love to recieve some Scharffen Berger Chocolate!!
I was going to comment about the delicious cinnamon rolls last week. those got gobbled up quick. But if commenting here allows the possibility for chocolate, all the better.
This dish looks heavenly and a whole box of chocolate would be amazing! Have fun at BlogHer Food- I wish I could be there.
This looks like a must try!
yummy! I love their chocolate.
I adore your pictures and perspective - and we made your ginger ice cream the other day - fabulous! So happy to not have to stand over a hot stove, coddling a custard. Et j'aime chocolate!
This looks so good...oh man. And it's almost hot chocolate season here.
I absolutely adore rice pudding and I think the chocolate panna cotta is just an amazing addition. Thanks for your inspiration and recipes!
I have no idea what made you combine these two recipes either! But I'm glad you did, looks wonderful!. (But your photos and recipes always do look wonderful.) This one is truly comfort food. A chance to win chocolate? Yes, please!
This sounds and looks incredible! I love rice pudding and chocolate but have never combined the two.
This looks amazing
i would love to win this chocolate. also, this recipe is going into my kitchen binder immediately. thanks!
This is the perfect weather for rice pudding. I've never had chocolate panna cotta, but I'd love to try. Thanks for the recipes and prize op.
sounds (and looks!!) so magnificent! wish I was in SF for the BlogHer events this weekend...unfortunately, I picked this week/weekend to travel to the east coast (what was I thinking!?) to visit some friends and family.
Your photos are beautiful! I can't wait to make this recipe (and a little chocolate prize to get me started wouldn't hurt ;) )
Would love to win the chocolate but really you had me at rice pudding and chocolate panna cotta...never thought to put them together. Have fun this weekend.
Yum, what a delicious giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity!
Oh chocolate ! Gosh, my "péché-mignon" ;) I'm in !
There is absolutely NOTHING not to love about this decadent yet soothing-to-the-belly dessert! And I mean, nothing!
everything always looks so good and too pretty to eat at the same time!
I love your photos. Everything always looks so good. I'd love to win the chocolate so I can make this.
Gina-
I am so glad I joined and am now seeing and reading some amazing recipes/photo's. The next step to to make them for my family. Thank you for a lovely site and wonderful information and the smile that seems to appear after each photo.
I would love to win the chocolate because I'm currently experimenting with nibs and would love to use some of high quality! Have fun in SF!
Looks yummy!
Is there anything better than chocolate?!?
Mmmmmmmmm chocolate............
Looks delicious! and of course the chocolate would be lovely!
Jeannie
As always, your pictures are gorgeous.
The chocolate sounds pretty good, too...I'm already dreaming up things to do with it!
I was just thinking about buying some chocolate. This would be great!
The pictures are scrumptious!!! I love, love, love chocolate!!!

Hello Helene. This recipe sounds more than yummy. I will definitely try it. I love chocolate deserts and basically anything with chocolate. I just made yesterday 75% chocolate and beet cupcakes. They were amazing.
Anyways, have fun at the Blog her food event. Wish I could be there. I dream of attending one day. It is a long way from Montreal. Wish we had interesting events like this in Canada. There is not much about food photography here. You basically have to teach yourself. hehehe. Would you be willing to have a webinar maybe for women around the world like myself who want to learn about food photography? I would be game. You just need a webcam and skype. :)
Just an idea.
Yay! Yummy chocolate would be awesome. I'm looking forward to using it!
I love your blog and all your recipes are amazing.chocolate is amazing as well ;)
I just subscribed to your blog yesterday and voile.... a chocolate giveaway... Nice welcome.
Scharffen Berger!!!!
It's MY BIRTHDAY (10/11) - I can think of no better gift than CHOCOLATE to slip me ever so decadently into my 41st year.
Oh the cakes I would bake, and a few tarts, perhaps some panna cotta...
I love your blog and all your recipes are amazing.chocolate is amazing as well ;)
Those look amazing. My husband and I are having a housewarming party soon--I'm going to have to give this recipe a try! :)
Makes my day reading your blog! Your recipes are cool pictures are fabulous! I have tried many of your recipes and they are really tasty! And of course would like to win this giveaway :-)
Amalia (Hungary)
Oooh, this looks fabulous! The photography is beautiful!
Yum, what a wonderful combination. These look absolutely delicious!
i really need to try making panna cotta and what better reason than chocolate?
What a nifty idea to put these two together! It has to be good! Have fun in SF this weekend!
Would like to win the giveaway,I never won anything but hopefully there is a first time!!
AND THE PUDDING LOOOKS SO DELICIOUS!!!
well, there goes the diet! yay chocolate! (I adore your photography ♥)
Mmmm... chocolate. I live in a small town and quality chocolate is hard to come by, I'd love to win!
This looks delicious! Can't wait to make it. Thank you Helene!
Mmm, Scharffen Berger is the best. Robert Steinberg will be missed forever, but how lovely that his memory can live on through desserts as beautiful, comforting, and delicious as this one!
I love panna cotta but have never had a chocolate one. I'll have to try this dandy little recipe out.
I cant wait for Blogher Food and the La Petite Soirée. It falls on my birthday and I get to party with all you fabulous women!!! AND EAT CHOCOLATE!
Great giveaway too! See ya there!
OH MY GOSH, THIS IS THE BEST GIVEAWAY EVER!!! I love chocolate & chocolate desserts, and always spend more than my budget really allows on buying nice chocolate. I have yet to make panna cotta, but it's been on my to-do list! This looks lovely!
Great looking dish!
That looks amazing as always! And the chocolate sounds great too :)
Scharffen Berger...woohoo! We can't even buy it in the pleasant hamlet in which we live!
Mmmmm, looks so good. I wish I were half as a good baker/cook as you! You inspire me to try new things. :0D
i <3 chocolate. pick me!
panna cotta looks amazingly delicious...so inspiring..
I love this combination and I love chocolate! Beautiful images, as always!
Yum, chocolate and rice pudding...perfect combination. Why didn't I think of that?? SB is my go-to chocolate for almost everything and, given that my stock has been greatly depleted due to my many experiments in the kitchen, the timing for this is perfect.
Gorgeous! Sometimes I wish I didn't love chocolate so much, but I would be thrilled to win!
I love panna cotta but never mae a chocolate one, now I will have to, yours look amazing!
I love Scharffen Berger, it is my chocolate of choice when I nee a little "lift".
Hooray panna cotta! Never tried a chocolate version, but I will now :)
I just want to say, I'm not much of a commenter, cuz I always think I'd come off as a crazy person, saying how much I love your blog, but I do! You always have such amazing things! I just started reading it a bit ago, but thanks so much for the inspirations!
Can you believe that the chef I used to work with was highly allergic to chocolate? What kind of life would that be? A sad one... I always made sure to eat twice as much to make up for what he was missing.
I just recently discovered your blog and I have to say that everything you photograph is simply beautiful. I will enjoy following you! OOoo, and I love chocolate too! ;)
This looks delicious! I have a question of ingredient substitution. I live in Morocco, and I have NO clue where to get gelatin. Any suggestions on how I could adapt the recipe without gelatin?
You never cease to amaze me Helene, love Arroz con Leche and love Panna Cotta and especially love anything with chocolate. I would have to make this for a coming dinner with a few good friends to impress. And I will tell them I am no inventor but the talented Helene Dujardin who writes mytartlette.com did!
It's my birthday today so hopefully the chocolate gods will cooperate! Bisous
That looks delicious! I'm a recent convert to the deliciousness of rice pudding, and I need to try this recipe!
How I do love chocolate, this looks delicious!
I absolutely can't wait to make this! Unfortunately, I am in college now, so the baking opportunities are relegated to brownies and cakes from a box, at best. How sad.
Mmmmm Scharffen Bergerrrrrr. That panna cotta looks amazing.
Chocolate? Would I love to win some chocolate? ABSOLUTELY!!
Please?!!
patricia1_may@yahoo.com
If only I was near my kitchen, I would make this right now! And if I had a stash of SB, my husband would be pushing me into the kitchen. Haha! I've waned to try my hand at panna cotta, but being pregnant has taken precedent for my culinary adventures. But, I'm away from the kitchen because we just had our first! Hallelujah and back to the kitchen with this recipe for me!
I LOVE Scharffen Berger chocolate, especially those lovely nibs. Awesome!
Your photos are gorgeous, and I especially love the one with the sliced chocolate. The silky smooth panna cotta is extremely tempting!
Mmm, this looks delicious :)
Yum! I've always wanted to try making Panna Cotta. Thank you! By the way, where did you get the patterned cups you used in the photo?
Yum! That looks so amazing :) Thank you for an awesome giveaway too!
Yum! That looks amazing. And thank you for a great giveaway :)
I have to try this. Maybe with the chocolate that I'm going to win?
Love Sharffen Berger chocolate!
Can't wait to try this! I actually just tried their chocolate for the first time last week. Love it!
chocolate contest? count me in.
Chocolate. Yum.
Hi,
Delurking to say that it is a yummilicious recipe..will try it soon.
Best,
AW
Panna cotta and rice pudding together...looks so yummy!
Hi!
I just discovered Tarlette a few days and have subsequently read back about fifty posts...ah... but it is all just beautiful and it inspires me to cook and bake more in my tiny galley kitchen, despite having literally no time with classes. thanks!
oh my gosh, these puddings look like heaven! thanks for the giveaway :) we could all use a bit more chocolate in our lives!
Scharffen Berger is sublime! Love your beautiful posts! <3 Judy
good chocolate is always welcome, in any form!
I can't wait to party with you girls this weekend. And eat lots of chocolate:) See you soon my friend!
Interesting combination, Helen! I'd like to try it myself with some Scharffen Berger!
I have to try this recipe! I love panna cotta and my husband loves rice pudding.
I've tried (and even made) regular panna cotta before, but never the chocolate variety. Although I imagine it would be even more delicious than the original because, c'mon, chocolate makes everything better!
I have to try this recipe - I love panna cotta and my husband loves rice pudding :)
OMG!! This dessert looks so good, I'm tempted to lick my screen!! Would love to get the chocolate to try this recipe!!
Danette Gabaldon
I would love to win that! I live in a small town and quality chocolate is hard to come by!
stephanie.coleman@coe.murraystate.edu
Did I hear rice pudding and chocolate panna cotta...2 absolute fav of mine and ohhh Scharffen Berger choc give away..cant wait to try these :-)...
I've been looking for a new rice pudding recipe. Thanks!
Oh, yum. Their chocolate is the best.
Love your blog! love the decadent recipes you share, thank you!
It looks amazing!
You have put together two of my favorite things in the world. There is a bakery by my house here in Chicago that makes incredibly decadent rice pudding...I have to shut my eyes (metaphorically) every time I drive by!
Did you say "heaven in a bowl?" No, it was chocolate panna cotta and rice pudding. Hmm...same thing?
stunning, as usual. thanks for such a great giveaway-- brings all of us lurkers out of the woodwork!
Looks tasty.
Oh my goodness this desert is two of my favorite things all wrapped up in a neat package.
Have fun at the conference. Eat loads, giggle more and enjoy!
This looks amazing!!!!!!! I really want to try it
Your rice pudding and chocolate panna cotta look so delicious. I can't wait to try them!
Wow! Yes please to free chocolate - I'd go anywhere for free chocolate - especially when it makes the stuff you make so luscious - the way you describe it has my mouth watering. Lovely pictures as always - composition, lighting - lots to learn from you. Thank you for sharing.
That's amazing....I just love your recipes and photos...You always makes me crave for your cooking!! I'm a big fan of yours, you inspire me. Really :)
I'm new on blogging so I'll be here posting a lot.
Lots of kisses!
http://www.macaronaddiction.blogspot.com/
You always leave me with the biggest desire to live somewhere where I can find some of these ingredients (ie: cocoa nibs, marvelous gourmet chocolates, etc) I'd love to get in on some chocolate action.
And if you need any volunteers from the peanut gallery....count me in!
so inspiring ...
Chocolate is the key to almost every girl's heart, I think. Thanks for the delicious looking recipe!
Love rice pudding & panna cotta, although have never tried a chocolate version. Sounds so good!
- Kathleen akprinz at msn dot com
I am not normally a rice pudding fan but this might be the thing that would sway me in that direction! Anything's better with chocolate and this looks divine.
the chocolate panna cotta looks heavenly!
Hmmm..... wow! Leave it to Helene to make my favorite desert (rice pudding) even better by adding chocolate. Why didn't I think of that???? I will have to make this one, and the sooner the better.
Oh my - chocolate and rice pudding...together. That must equal heaven on a spoon!
Looks so delish! Thank you for such a beautiful blog!
I love your blog. Wonderful recipes and beautiful pictures. You are an inspiration.
Merci!
Oh my goodness, yum! I can't wait to try this!
Ooooh, rice pudding! Love!
I can't wait to try this recipe and who could possibly refuse the offer of chocolate! Yumm!!
That's hilarious, how your names all matched like that!
I really need to make panna cotta--I always crave it, and this looks divine!
I would never thought of combining rice pudding and pots de creme, what a genius idea!
I love their chocolate, and this chocolate would be so precious now that Fall is coming
Have fun at the party :)
I've never seen chocolate panna cotta before. The usual white/vanilla custart scares me away, but chocolate I just might have to try.
Sharing chocolate with others is perhaps the greatest act of generosity!
That looks intensely awesome! I would love to win some chocolate!
I'm so glad to see a rice pudding recipe, I've been thinking of trying it out this fall!
Ahhh! Scharffen Berger baking chocolates? That would completely change my kitchen and my baking! SO exciting. Thanks for hosting the contest. :)
pick me, random person, pick me!
I feel stupid writing here that I've never made a panna cotta but the creaminess n beauty of it always asks me to try making it. Will definitely give this one a try since it has chocolate in it and you can never go wrong with a chocolate!
Oh chocolate and caramel! *swoon* I'm glad you're a fellow milk chocolate lover. Enjoy BlogHer!
I've never had panna cotta. This looks so lovely though. I will have to try it soon :)
Thanks!
Beautiful and inspiring as usual. Can't wait to try this recipe.
In all honesty, I'm not usually a huge rice pudding fan... but this looks awesome!
... And of course, the possibility of free chocolate is pretty sweet, too ;)
Yum! Two of nature's most perfect foods, rice pudding and chocolate anything, in one blog!
I've just started planning my winter chocolate purchases. The New York Chocolate Show is coming, and I'll be making chocolate things for a local fundraiser... and these will be panna cottas will be perfect for my Thursday teas.
i wonder....will i win??? it would be yummy!!
love your posts, photos AND recipes
I love this combination! I myself am a pastry chef and can't wait to try this.
XX
I had an internship one summer across the street from the Scharffen Berger factory in Berkeley!! I love them!
Oh My! Chocolate is calling! "Pick us, Pick us!!" My kids are cheering in the background!!
Ooh I have nevr tried panna cotta but this looks delicious, especially with Scharffen Berger!
