Hard Boiled Egg Pudding

She invented this as a way to get some eggs into her (then-baby) son, who didn't seem to like them. I don't think she's a fan of protein powders, and I wouldn't be for feeding a baby, either. He loved it.

I saw her post this on twitter a few times and thought it sounded awful! Then, I had boiled eggs that I pretty much forgot about and would have had to throw out anyway... so I tried it. I was wrong. It's not something I think I'll make regularly, but certainly an appealing way to avoid wasting boiled eggs when I'm already boiled-egged-out. I think it would also be good for if you're ill, have had dental work, or you're otherwise trying to get some protein in you and a sweet treat is feeling like the only way to do it.

Here is the version I made, since it's what I had on hand:
- 3 peeled boiled eggs
- 2 Tbsp cream + water to thin as needed
- 3 packets Sweet n' Low (cyclamate) - I'm out of Splenda
- 1 heaping Tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- pinch salt (not sure what the purpose of this is? Maybe I'll ask her...)

I omitted the cinnamon since I don't care for it combined with chocolate.

I just whizzed everything up in my Magic Bullet. You really have to beat the crap out of it. If you think you're done, keep going. And be sure to let it sit in the fridge overnight. That mellows it out.

I'm not a big fan of the cyclamate, and it was a bit too sulfury-eggy still (I overcooked those eggs), so I chopped up 2 sq of 90% chocolate to put on top. That did the trick.
