Making pudding from scratch is extremely simple. How good it tastes depends on the quality of the chocolate used, but even with basic grocery store supplies, it's far better than the boxed stuff. To make a richer pudding, substitute cream; for variety, mix in orange zest, espresso powder, kirsch, etc.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch (3 Tbsp if planning to serve immediately) shopping list
- 2 Tbsp sugar shopping list
- 2 Tbsp cocoa powder shopping list
- 2 C whole milk shopping list
- 4 oz chocolate, chopped shopping list
- 1 tsp vanilla extract shopping list
How to make it
- In a heavy saucepan, mix together cornstarch, sugar, and cocoa until blended. Add milk.
- Whisking constantly, bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Boil, whisking, for 2 minutes, or until mixture becomes thick.
- Remove from heat, and whisk in chocolate pieces and vanilla.
- Transfer pudding to a bowl and cool in the refrigerator with a sheet of plastic wrap pressed to the surface to prevent a skin from forming.

I didn't have chocolate, but I had Dutch Droste cocoa, so I just used 1/4 cup of that. Fantastic, not too sweet. You didn't mention a chill time, so I went with half an hour in a metal bowl.

If making pudding is this easy, why does anyone use a mix? I can't wait to try this.
