No, this pudding isn't served hot a la hot chocolate. Instead, this rich, creamy treat takes its flavor cues from the cozy drink you know and love with the help of hot chocolate mix. That's right. This week's Most Popular Pin of the Week is made with the same mix you'd use to make a cup of cocoa, plus a bit of cornstarch, which helps the mixture thicken and turn into a pudding. When it comes to serving the pudding, the chefs in Food Network Kitchen explain, "Our hot chocolate pudding is topped with whipped cream, but as on the real thing, mini marshmallows would be great too."
