Here’s a simple recipe for a stovetop chocolate pudding:
Ingredients:
– 2 cups milk
– 1/3 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
– 3 tablespoons cornstarch
– 1/8 teaspoon salt
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
2. Gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth and there are no lumps.
3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil, about 8-10 minutes.
4. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
6. Cover the pudding with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
7. Chill the pudding in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set.
8. Serve chilled, optionally with whipped cream or fresh fruit on top.
