Chocolate Pudding Recipe Without Cornstarch
Description
The pudding combines flour, sugar, and unsweetened cocoa powder mixed together before eggs and milk are incorporated to form a smooth mixture. It is gently cooked over medium heat while whisking until it thickens and simmers. Butter and vanilla are added after cooking to enhance richness and aroma. The pudding is then divided into serving vessels and covered with plastic wrap to prevent skin from forming as it cools in the refrigerator.
This recipe’s texture is smooth and creamy with a tender bite from the flour's thickening action, different from the gel-like set typical of cornstarch-based puddings. The chocolate flavor is balanced and mildly sweet, making it suitable as a dessert on its own or for topping with cherries or whipped cream.
The pudding can be served chilled in individual cups or a large bowl, making it convenient to portion. Adding whipped cream or fresh berries complements the chocolate without overpowering it.
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoon cocoa powder unsweetened
- 2 egg
- 3 cups milk
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add flour, sugar, and cocoa powder to a mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- Add eggs and mix until paste forms.
- Mix in the milk until smooth.
- Add mixture to a saucepan over medium heat. Continue to whisk until the mixture starts to simmer and thicken.
- Remove from heat and add the butter and vanilla. Mix in until melted.
- Pour the dessert into individual cups, mason jars, or one big bowl. Put a plastic wrap over the top to prevent skin from forming.
- Set in the fridge for 1-2 hours until the pudding has cooled and set.
Notes
- Cover the pudding with plastic wrap directly on the surface to avoid skin forming while chilling.
- Serve chilled, optionally topped with whipped cream or berries for added texture and flavor.
