Ingredients
- List of Ingredients
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch *Note: many reviewers found 3 Tbsp to be too thick when used with the cream, so they reduced it to 2 tablespoons. **The 3 Tablespoons worked well with milk.
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups light cream (I used lowfat milk)
- 3 ounces chopped bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Recipe
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of the cream until smooth, then whisk in the remaining 1 cup cream. Set the pan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil, about 5 minutes. Continue to whisk and boil for 1 minute.
Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate and vanilla. Let stand for 5 minutes until the chocolate is melted, then stir gently until the pudding is smooth. (Do not stir too much or the pudding might thin out.)
Divide the pudding among 6 small dessert dishes. Let cool for about 20 minutes to serve warm and soft, or chill for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
Makes 6 servings.
