I am going chocolate 'stir crazy' because I am not allowed to eat it! But here is a wicked recipe that I have made for those who do not like Christmas pudding:

Slice a McVities chocolate sponge into 1cm slices and line a deep glass trifle bowl.
Pour over a tin of black cherries or a jar of marachinos
Pour over a miniture bottle of cherry Kirtsh and allow to soak into the sponge and fruit.
Make and pour over a raspberry jelly and chill until set.
Top with chocolate custard (ready made from M&S)
Finish with whipped double cream and chocolate shavings.

Divine!
