You will never go back to a boxed mix again. This is a super simple recipe that creates a rich creamy chocolate pudding that is great for doughnut or pie filling or just with a dollop of fresh whipped cream! Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/3 cup natural cocoa powder |
4 teaspoons cornstarch |
3 large egg yolks |
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon fine salt |
3/4 cup whipping cream |
Directions:
1. Put 1 1/2 cups of the milk, the sugar, and the cocoa in a nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a simmer, over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat.
2. Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup of the milk, cornstarch, salt, egg yolks, and vanilla in a bowl. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the egg mixture. Return to the saucepan and cook over medium-high heat whisking constantly, until the pudding comes to a full boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and continue whisking until thick, about 2 or 3 minutes more.
3. Pour the pudding into 6 small cups. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight until set.
4. Just before serving pour the cream into a chilled bowl. Whip the cream with a whisk or a hand held mixer, and continue beating until soft peaks form. Take care not to over-beat the cream or it will be grainy. Serve each pudding with a dollop of whipped cream on top
