Homemade Chocolate PuddingHomemade chocolate pudding is easier to make than you would think. The tricky part is bringing it to a boil without having it stick to the bottom of the pan. It does take a lot of stirring, but box pudding doesn't compare to this rich, creamy pudding!-1 cup sugar -1/2 cup unsweetened baking cocoa -1/4 cup cornstarch -1/2 teaspoon salt -4 cups whole milk -2 tablespoons butter, softened -2 teaspoons vanilla extract -chocolate mint patties, chocolate kisses or other topping candy is optional In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt. Slowly add in the milk, stirring so you don't have lumps. Bring to a rolling boil (very fast boil that doesn't stop boiling when you stir) over a medium heat. Once you've reached the boiling point, continue to boil and stir continuously for 2 minutes or until pudding becomes thickened. Spoon into dishes and chill for at least 1/2 hour. Top with chocolate kisses, mint candies if you'd like and serve. Click here for more great dessert recipes like Homemade Chocolate Pudding!
