Mmm Mmm! Monday - Chocolate Banana Pudding

This week Kit has challenged me to create a recipe using only ingredients we already have sitting in our refrigerator, freezer, and/or pantry. I am not allowed to spend any money or "borrow" food from neighbors, friends or family. It must be creative, aesthetically pleasing and, above all else, yummy! I feel like I'm on Top Chef! Regardless of the constraints, this turned out to be a great snack! I think even Tom Colicchio would approve! Try this at home and let me know what you think!
