Remember this? Real homemade pudding. This is so easy I don’t understand why anyone would settle for instant glop. Maybe it’s the 15 minutes of stirring. Get a bar stool. I had one made up and when I’ve a longish stir to do I pull it up to the stove and have a chat with my cat while I stir. Read more I bought a pkt. of instant chocolate pudding a while back, to see what it was like. I had about four spoons full. It wasn’t awful. It also wasn’t chocolate pudding. I gave the rest to my dog. He liked it. See less

Other than perfect and delicious there isn't much more to say. Classic recipe that is wonderful!. No excuse to use a pre-packaged mix when there is this.
