As quick as packaged pudding, but twice as rich and flavorful.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    2 Servings; can be doubled

Ingredients

1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Pinch of salt
1 cup whole milk
1/2 ounce bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Mix sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt in heavy medium saucepan. Gradually add half of milk, whisking until mixture is smooth. Whisk in remaining milk. Continue whisking over medium heat until pudding thickens and comes to boil, about 5 minutes. Continue to boil 1 minute longer, whisking constantly.

    Step 2

    Remove pudding from heat. Add chocolate and vanilla; whisk until chocolate melts and pudding is smooth. Divide between 2 dessert dishes. Cool puddings in freezer 20 minutes and serve.
