Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup natural cocoa powder
  • 4 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
  • 3/4 cup whipping cream

Directions

Put 1 1/2 cups of the milk, the sugar, and the cocoa in a nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a simmer, over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat.

Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup of the milk, cornstarch, salt, egg yolks, and vanilla in a bowl. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the egg mixture. Return to the saucepan and cook over medium-high heat whisking constantly, until the pudding comes to a full boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and continue whisking until thick, about 2 or 3 minutes more.

Pour the pudding into 6 small cups. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight until set.

Just before serving pour the cream into a chilled bowl. Whip the cream with a whisk or a hand held mixer, and continue beating until soft peaks form. Take care not to over-beat the cream or it will be grainy. Serve each pudding with a dollop of whipped cream on top.

    Excellent! Just like my mom used to make. I used hershy special dark cocoa which was delicious. And what to do with the egg whites...? Why meringues, of course. For each white use 2 Tblsp sugar,then add a pinch of cream of tarter and a tsp. of vanilla. Beat til stiff and shiny then drop small mounds on a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake at 250 for 20 to 30 minutes until dry and slightly golden. My mom used to call these Kisses. Enjoy!

    Thank You Chatina...I did strain my pudding, and yes it WAS smooth and perfict, it was just the TASTE of the chocolate, well not even that really. It tasted like chocolate heaven, and YES I LOVE IT HOT!!!! Its the best way to eat it!!! But for some reason my pudding had a chalky mouth feel. It looked creamy, tasted creamy, it just left a chalky mouth feel. Oh Well....I will still make it again. It was SO PERFICT otherwise. The best pudding I have ever had!!SMILES
