who needs boxed pudding? this is so simple, and so good.

ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions

  • 1

    Mix the sugar, cocoa powder, salt and cornstarch together in a small bowl. Set aside. Heat the milk and cream in a small saucepan until bubbles form around the edges. Take out a cup of the liquid and whisk rapidly into the dry ingredients, then add everything back into the pan.

    Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, just until it thickens. This will only take a couple minutes. Stir in vanilla, then pour into a container and refrigerate with plastic wrap touching the top so a skin doesn’t form. (Or not, if you’re a fan...) It’s also great slightly warm, or with whipped cream.
