    RUclips! At it again... Over the last few weeks RUclips has implemented some back end changes on a few 'Test' channels; and unfortunately this cooking channel is one of them. The new 'Features' have caused glitches in the uploads, and a bit of instability. When this video was released yesterday it had a couple of glitches; but by late afternoon some viewers were reporting that the screen went green and only the audio was available.
    Over the last 24 hours I've re-uploaded this video 8 times trying to get one that was stable and without glitches.
    I think I've finally got it? But there will be no closed captions for a while, since it looks like the CC and the Ai generated audio is causing the trouble.

      RUclips has been driving us nuts recently. We have selected English as our language. For some reason, most of the ads they are showing to us these days are in French. Unfortunately I don't speak French, so the ads are just annoying. I don't imagine the advertisers would be thrilled about wasting their money.

It would be far easier than a lot of Passover baking recipes.

    Coming here after Glen's square rant to say that in Australia, in my experience at least, baking/cooking chocolate is just in the same basic shape as eating chocolate, and from my dusty recollection (I moved to Finland 2 years ago), there's no "4 squares = whatever measurement" thing on the package. If you get a direction like "2 squares", you're stuffed! I've often counted how many squares/rows are in the bar and then divided it to work out exactly how many grams each square or row is, as recipes usually specify the chocolate amount in grams and sometimes you couldn't be bothered getting the scale out or you don't have one. Baking in Finland is similar - you just get a gram measurement of chocolate. But now if I'm cooking some old US recipe for whatever reason, I'll know how to do the conversion, so thanks Glen!

    Glen, Thank you so much for fixing this so I could see it in its entirety. I can relate to your lack of enthusiasm with the final product. I really don't like chocolate pudding or any pudding, nor am I so fond of bread pudding either. Since the chocolate was somewhat muted as well, there wasn't much I would like about it. Oh well. Things must have been different back in the 20's. Looking forward to a better rendition from you in the future. Thanks for all your efforts! - Marilyn

    Interesting recipe. I would definitely increase the chocolate and/or maybe bake it in a Bain Marie (water bath).
    The term “pudding” here might be a descendant of British puddings (eg sticky pudding) because it’s not exactly a “custard” nor is it what we in the US came to know as “pudding” (a custard type of sweet cooked on the stovetop).

However when you did the flip through of the book that vegetarian loaf recipe looked promising. I have a hunch it would have a similar texture and make a passable meatloaf substitute so long as there was some nice gravy or other sauce to go along with it.

      I zoomed in on the cover and I'm still not sure whether that is an apostrophe, because it lines up with one of the dashes on the tartan print design. The kerning is awkward if it's supposed to be an apostrophe. Maybe the printers weren't 100% sure, so they just squashed in that slightly heavier dash to cover both possibilities.
