NOTES:

* A no-bake chocolate cake -- This is a very simple,
quick, no-bake cake for those of us who hate getting
near an oven, but like delightful cheese cakes. This
recipe is originally from the _Yediot Achronot_
(Latest News) newspaper supplement here in Israel. It
should be prepared a day or two before you intend to
eat it, so that the flavoring fills out. Definitely
not for people on a diet. Yield: Serves 6-8.

* You can replace the milk and cream with about 1 1/2
lb of 9 percent milk fat cheese. This is a product
sold in Israel. The nearest equivalent in North
America is sour cream. If you do this, replace the
pudding with about 1/2 cup of chocolate syrup. If you
are not a chocolate lover, you may replace the
chocolate pudding with vanilla pudding (or with
vanilla extract if you are using the 9 percent cheese)

: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: 10 minutes preparation, several hours
chilling. : Precision: measure the ingredients.
