Hey there,
Another day, another fabulous recipe for you. This time I am calling out all the chocolate lovers out there who just need a chocolatey treat without lots of fuss and takes care of the craving real quick. It’s my simple homemade chocolate pudding recipe, what’s not to love, perfect on its own, topped up with some cream and more chocolate shavings or just add in more flavours if you like but for me, simple is better. There was a debate around my house when it came to the crust forming and no crust and who preferred what, personally I love both and don’t mind at all but if you get a tad bit squeamish then no crust for you then.
This is also a very nice and convenient dessert if you’re entertaining since you can make them ahead and let them refrigerate for a while before serving. Also depending on what type of chocolate you prefer, you can choose to go for a fancy chocolate bar or normal milk chocolate will do too. For this homemade chocolate pudding, you will require;
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup sugar
- A 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 30 grams any creamy chocolate or dark chocolate
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups milk
METHOD
- Add your salt, sugar, cocoa and cornstarch into a saucepan and whisk together to remove all the lumps.
- Onto medium heat and start pouring your milk slowly while whisking to combine.
- Once thickened, remove from heat, add your chocolate and whisk to melt.
- Then your vanilla extract and whisk once more.
- Into your serving glasses or bowls, cover with cling film and make sure it touches the pudding not to form a crust.
- Let it chill in the refrigerator for a few hours.
- Serve and enjoy.
