Cook’s Corner: Readers share their chocolate recipes | StAugustine.com
Cynthia asked for help finding a recipe for the ice box pudding served at La Casita Tea Room in Coconut Grove, in the 1950s and ‘60s. She called it one of the highlights of her childhood and remembered “it had some kind of wafer or cake, whipped cream, chocolate pudding and maybe some nuts.”Janet Sternbach of Oak Island, N.C. still makes her mother’s icebox cake with her daughter. That recipe uses half chocolate and half vanilla pudding, with layers of graham crackers rather than lady fingers or chocolate wafers.
