Let me tell you this is the best way to smuggle the goodness of beetroot and make children eat it and no one, specially no child can find out its presence as the earthy (or may I say yukky 😛 ) flavor of Beetroot gets concealed by the presence of chocolate.... ideal for after school or after homework surprise treat!!

- Now take 1 cup Milk in a pan and boil it. Add the above chocolate beet root mix and keep whisking. Keep in low flame and whisk it well continuously so that lumps do not form. When the mixture starts to thicken, add chocolate shavings and mix well.
- The mixture will further thicken, when you scrap it should easily leave the sides of the pan without sticking.It will coat the ladle well. When its shiny, thick and creamy , switch off the stove.

-Custurd Powder can be replaced by Corn Flour
-Presence of jaggery makes this pudding texture little bit gooey, nevertheless it tastes yum.
