3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whipped cream, for serving (optional)
•Instructions:
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the whole milk, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens and comes to a gentle boil, about 8-10 minutes.
Once the mixture has thickened, remove it from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Transfer the pudding to individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
Cover the pudding with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap is touching the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours, or until chilled and set.
Serve the chilled pudding topped with whipped cream if desired.
Enjoy your creamy and indulgent velvety chocolate pudding!
