Ingredients
-
3/4 cup sugar (if you prefer a really sweet pudding add in a few tablespoons more sugar)
-
1/3 cup cocoa, sifted
-
3 tablespoons cornstarch (measure 3 tablespoons exactly!)
-
1 pinch salt
-
1/2 cup whipping cream
-
1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream or 1 1/2 cups full-fat milk
-
2 teaspoons vanilla
-
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (use semisweet chocolate for a deeper chocolate taste)
Instructions
- In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan whisk together the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt.
- Add in the half and half and whipping cream.
- set the saucepan over medium heat and cook whisking constantly until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil (this should take about 5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and add in vanilla and gently add in the milk chocolate chips and vanilla (do not mix completely) let stand for 5 minutes, the mix until the chocolate is completely mixed in (do not stir to much or the pudding will thin out).
- Divide the mixture into 3 or four small dessert dishes.
- Chill until cold (you might want to cover each dish with plastic wrap).
