Homemade Chocolate Pudding
CATEGORIES
INGREDIENTS
- Cooking Time: 10 minutes
- Servings: 4
- Preparation Time: 5 minutes
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup Rodelle’s Gourmet Baking Cocoa
- 1/4 cup Cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 cup milk I use whole milk
- 2 Tbs butter
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
- In a medium sized pan add the dry ingredients: sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt. Whisk together the ingredients so they are all combined. Move the pot to the stove top.
- Measure out 2 cups of milk and whisk it into the dry ingredients. Turn on the stove to medium heat. Add the additional 2 cups milk, butter and vanilla.
- With the heat going constantly keep the whisk going. The lumps at the top will eventually disappear so be patient. Keep stirring until the pudding starts to thicken--this takes about 5-8 minutes so be patient as you need to stay and whisk the pudding the whole time so the bottom doesn't burn.
- When you can dip a spoon into the pudding and it coats the back of it you can take it off the heat and put into serving bowls.
- If eating warm give the pudding at least 10 minutes to cool down and firm up a little.
- For no skin: cut wax paper to fit or plastic wrap pressed down on the top to prevent the skin from forming.
- If you want cold: put it into the fridge for about half an hour.
- Serve warm or chilled. With or without whipped cream. Enjoy!
