    Knocks the socks off the box stuff.

    I have made it with Dutch Process and with regular cocoa and it works either way. Great results with 2% milk and no cream. If you cook it to a boil and keep whisking, you don't need a sieve. Make sure that you keep cooking it to have the corn starch do its magic. I don't mind the skin so I don't use plastic wrap.

    Total kid pleaser.

    Seriously good chocolate pudding. And so convenient that the mix recipe makes it ridiculously easy to make a second batch when the first one is lustily devoured!
