individual mocha pudding cakes

I love pudding cakes and I love mocha, so this is a match made in heaven for me! It isn't very sweet, think closer to semisweet chocolate. If eaten hot, right out of the oven, the pudding part is more like a luscious sauce. It makes 4 individual servings, perfect for small families. It can be doubled too!
