Old-Fashioned Chocolate Pudding Recipe
Here's some comfort food that is quick and easy, particularly for those homebound by the cold weather! This is soooo good and reminds me of my childhood, unlike the packaged kind!

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 Tbsp. (packed) cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon all purpose flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 cups cold, low-fat (1% or 2%) milk
  • 1 tsp. unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp. almond extract

Directions
  1. Mix first 5 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan.
  2. Add 1 cup milk and whisk to dissolve cornstarch.
  3. Whisk in remaining milk.
  4. Whisk mixture over medium heat until thickened and beginning to simmer, about 5 minutes.
  5. Simmer 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  6. Remove from heat.
  7. Stir in butter, vanilla and almond extracts.
  8. Divide pudding among 4 custard cups.
  9. Chill until cold, about 2 hours.
  10. Can be made one day ahead. Cover and keep chilled.
  11. To avoid a “skin” forming on the top of your pudding, cover pudding by putting a piece of wax paper directly onto the top of the pudding surface.

I could slurp this whole thing up! Home-made chocolate pudding is the best!


It is so easy to make the real thing that you wonder why people buy that boxed stuff... thank you... ^5


Oh yeah! This takes me way back. MMMMM it makes me think of home. I miss my Mommy. I guess I'll have to make this all by my self (and not share).Hey the skin is good too. Thank you. MJ


Nothing better than home-made! Lovely recipe, thanks for sharing it!


There is no box mix that can compete with homemade pudding - it is so rich and just so much more flavorful...don't know why, maybe just that extra little bit of love that goes into it?! You make me want to go whip up a pan of it right now...good stuff, connor!


I'm soooo happy I came across this while looking for an appetizer...lol...I LOVE chocolate puddin'...can't wait to make this one!!
