Ingredients
- 5 cups milk 2% or whole
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee granules optional
Instructions
- Set a medium sauce pot over medium heat. Add the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, salt, and coffee granules. Stir to combine, then pour in the milk. Whisk well to remove all clumps.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer. Once simmering, stir consistently for 1-2 minutes, as the pudding thickness. It should be fairly thick, but will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. Stir until the butter is fully melted and combined.
- If you feel like you were unable to stir in all the clumps, you can pour the pudding through a mesh strainer to remove any debris. Otherwise, scoop the pudding into a storage container and press a piece of plastic wrap down over the surface of the pudding, so a skin doesn’t form as it cools.
- Once it is fully chilled, you can remove the plastic wrap and cover it with a lid. Serve cold.
Notes
- Vegan Pudding? You can substitute almond or coconut milk for the cow’s milk, and then use a vegan butter substitute for the butter.
- This chocolate pudding recipe makes a fabulous chocolate pie filling! Make sure to cook it the full 2 minutes, so it sets very thick.
