Ingredients
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2.75 cups Whole milk
- 2 large Egg yolks
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk together the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
Gradually whisk in the whole milk, ensuring there are no lumps, then whisk in the egg yolks until the mixture is smooth.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble gently. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Step 4
Once the pudding thickens, remove it from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and butter until fully incorporated.
Step 5
Pour the pudding into serving dishes or ramekins. If you prefer to avoid a skin forming on the surface, place a piece of plastic wrap directly in contact with the pudding.
Step 6
Let the pudding cool slightly, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill completely.
Step 7
Serve cold and enjoy on its own, or with a dollop of whipped cream or fresh berries for an extra treat!
