Chocolate Pudding

Snack Packs are a lot easier but homemade chocolate pudding is crazy delicious.

Ingredients [serves 4 appropriately or 2 generously]:
1½ cups milk
3.5 oz. dark chocolate
3 egg yolks
1 tablespoon cornstarch
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1½ cups milk
+ whipped cream
+ chocolate shavings

Start by heating milk and cinnamon in a saucepan over low heat.

Warm the milk just until scalding and remove from the heat.

Add chocolate chips to the warm milk and stir until the chocolate melts.

In a separate bowl, add egg yolks, cornstarch, salt, vanilla extract, sugar, and cocoa powder. Whisk to combine. The mixture will be thick.

Temper the yolks with a little of the hot milk. Once the yolks are warmed up, add the rest of the milk and whisk to combine.

Pour the custard mixture back into the saucepan and return to the stove over low heat.

Whisk the custard continuously until it thickens.

Spoon the pudding into serving dishes and cover with cling film. Chill for four hours.

Garnish the grownup pudding cups with whipped cream and shaved chocolate.

This chocolate pudding is incredibly rich, creamy, and has a deep flavor. The dark chocolate gives it a really intense chocolate flavor without being too sweet. It's decadent and indulgent and delicious.
