    Notes

    NOTES:
    * You can replace the buttermilk with regular milk.
    * Make sure you make this in a tart pan like the one in this picture, so that the cake can hold the pudding. If you can’t find this type of pan, its ok, just make in a normal round pan. If you want the cake to hold more pudding, scrape out a little cake from surface to make a well, keeping the sides as such.
    * If you cant get kinder, just use the usual chocolate. But i must say that it tastes too good with kinder.
