Ingredients

• 1/3 cup Small pearl tapioca
• 2.5 cups Whole milk
• 1/3 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/8 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 Large egg yolk

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the tapioca pearls and 2 cups of whole milk. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the tapioca to soften slightly.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the tapioca and milk mixture, stirring constantly to prevent sticking, for about 10 minutes or until the pearls become translucent and the mixture thickens slightly.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually stir this mixture into the saucepan with the tapioca and milk, ensuring no lumps form.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg yolk. Slowly temper the yolk by whisking in a few spoonfuls of the hot tapioca mixture. Once tempered, stir the egg mixture back into the saucepan.

Step 5

Continue to cook the pudding over low heat for another 5-7 minutes, stirring constantly, until it becomes thick and creamy.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and semi-sweet chocolate chips until the chocolate is fully melted and incorporated into the pudding.

Step 7

Divide the pudding into 4 serving dishes or bowls and let cool for at least 10 minutes. Serve warm or refrigerate for a chilled dessert.

Step 8

Optional: Garnish with whipped cream, fresh berries, or a sprinkle of grated chocolate before serving.
