Milk Chocolate Pudding

Servings: 4-6
Comments:
A thick and delicious chocolate pudding, a comfort food for those times when you crave a real chocolate treat. It's that that smooth and creamy pudding we all love and remember from our childhood.


Ingredients:
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
4 oz. good quality milk chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Serve with:
Lightly sweetened whipped cream


Instructions:
Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt in a 2-quart heavy saucepan, then gradually whisk in milk and cream. Bring to a boil over moderately high heat, whisking constantly, then boil, whisking, 2 minutes. (Mixture will be thick.) Remove from heat. Whisk in chocolate and vanilla until smooth.

Transfer to a bowl and chill pudding, its surface covered with wax paper (to prevent a skin from forming), until cold, at least 2 hours.

Note:
Pudding can be chilled, covered with plastic wrap after 2 hours, up to 3 days.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
