This is the dessert other desserts indulge in when they want to celebrate. Sinful Chocolate Delight is layer upon layer of sweet satisfaction. The bottom is a crispy, crunchy, nutty pastry, the middle is a creamy, cool, and slightly tangy confection and the top is a smooth and rich chocolate pudding.
