Chocolate Chocolate Pudding for 2

Submitted by Realtor by day, Chef by night

"This yummy pudding is so easy to make and tastes so much better than store bought or boxed mixes. I really like knowing exactly what's in the food we eat. Give this one a try, you'll never go back to the boxed pudding again!"

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 7
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1⁄3 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 4 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions

1. Mix sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt in heavy bottom saucepan. Gradually add 1/2 of the milk, whisking until smooth. Add remaining mix, whisking to combine.
2. Over medium heat, continue whisking until pudding thickens and comes to a boil, about 5 minutes. Allow to boil 1 minute longer and then remove from heat.
3. Add chocolate chips and vanilla extract and whisk until chocolate melts and pudding is smooth.
4. Divide between 2 dessert dishes, cover with plastic wrap touching the surface of the pudding so that it doesn't form a skin (yuck!). Cool completely- overnight is best.
5. Serve with whipped cream.

This was freakin amazing! It was so rich, it really reminded us of a chocolate pie filling, and I think we may try to use it as that sometime. I may have added an extra teaspoon of corn starch (I was in lala land for some reason), so mine was pretty thick, but we didn't care. I will definitely be making this again and again.

This is quite rich and tasty! Small servings, but that is good, or I would eat more than I need! I subbed Splenda for the sugar and used non-fat milk. Thanks for an easy and somewhat healthy dessert!

I made this a while back and forgot to review it! So sorry! This was very chocolatey. I made it for DS, and he really enjoyed it. He much prefers homemade pudding to store bought! And this was just the right amount. Made for I recommend.

This pudding has a rich taste of chocolate. Very yummy! The thickness is great. But for us it was too sweet. Next time I'Ll use less sugar. Thanks Realtor :) Made for holiday tag.

A lovely recipe that is just the perfect amount for two. Although DH and DS are BIG eaters, this was just enough for them after a big dinner. Smooth, rich and creamy. Much better than the box mixes.:-) Made for KK's Mini-cook-a-thon~
