Chocolate Peppermint Pudding
INGREDIENTS
- Servings: 6
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 2 ounces Andes Peppermint Crunch Chips (can use finely chopped bittersweet chocolate, if desired)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, cocoa and salt.
- Gradually whisk in both milks - bring to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking constantly.
- Reduce heat and simmer until it has thickened, about 1 to 3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and add peppermint chips - stir until smooth. Mix in vanilla.
- Evenly divide the mixture between 6 ramekins (we used 8 ounce ramekins) - if you prefer your pudding to have a skin, leave it uncovered, otherwise cover the pudding's surface with plastic wrap. Chill at least 4 hours before serving.
