Total preparation time: 60 minutes
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Baking time: 25 minutes
Number of servings: 8

Necessary ingredients:

For the crust:
- 4 eggs (preferably at room temperature)
- 4 tablespoons of sugar
- 4 tablespoons of flour
- a pinch of salt
- (optional) ½ packet of baking powder for an even fluffier crust

For the chocolate pudding:
- 1 packet of chocolate pudding (about 40g)
- 200 ml milk (150 ml for boiling and 50 ml for mixing)
- 4 tablespoons of sugar

For decoration:
- chocolate sprinkles (or other chocolate decorations)
- grated dark chocolate

Step by step: Preparing the chocolate pudding tart

1. Preparing the crust: Start by carefully separating the egg whites from the yolks. It is essential that the bowls used are clean and free of grease. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until you get a stiff and glossy foam. This step will help create a fluffy crust.

2. Mixing the yolks: In another bowl, beat the yolks with the sugar until they become a creamy and light-colored mixture. This will add sweetness and improve the textures.

3. Combining the ingredients: With a spatula, add the yolk mixture over the egg whites, mixing gently to avoid losing the air from the egg whites. Gradually incorporate the sifted flour (and baking powder if you choose to use it) with delicate movements from top to bottom.

4. Baking the crust: Prepare a round baking pan (about 24 cm in diameter) lined with parchment paper. Pour the obtained mixture into the pan and level it gently with a wooden spoon. Preheat the oven to 180°C (medium heat) and bake the crust for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

5. Preparing the chocolate pudding: In a saucepan, bring 150 ml of milk to a boil. In a separate bowl, mix the pudding with 4 tablespoons of sugar and 50 ml of cold milk until smooth. When the milk in the saucepan starts to boil, add the pudding mixture and stir continuously. Cook until thickened, then remove from heat.

6. Assembling the tart: Once the crust has completely cooled, carefully remove the parchment paper. Pour the chocolate pudding evenly over the crust, leveling it with a spatula. Allow the tart to cool completely, then decorate with chocolate sprinkles and grated chocolate, as desired.

7. Serving: The chocolate pudding tart can be served plain or alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. This combination will add a touch of freshness to the dessert.

Helpful tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for a fluffier crust.
- If you want to add a personal touch to the recipe, you can add a few drops of vanilla essence or a pinch of cinnamon to the crust mixture.
- Depending on your preferences, you can replace the chocolate sprinkles with fresh fruits or chopped nuts.

Nutritional benefits:
This chocolate pudding tart is a good source of carbohydrates and proteins, thanks to the eggs and flour. Chocolate brings antioxidants, while milk contributes calcium. However, it is worth noting that this dessert is high in sugar and calories, so enjoy it in moderation.

Frequently asked questions:
1. Can I use melted chocolate instead of pudding?
- Yes, you can achieve a delicious chocolate pudding by melting chocolate with cream, but the preparation time will be different.

2. How can I make the tart less sweet?
- You can reduce the amount of sugar in the crust or pudding, or you can use a pudding without added sugar.
