Answer 1

basic chocolate pudding

INGREDIENTS:

3 squares unsweetened chocolate (3 ounces)

3 cups milk

1/4 cup cornstarch

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoons vanilla extract

PREPARATION:

In a saucepan, cook 2 2/3 cups of the milk with chocolate, stirring until chocolate is melted and milk is scalded. Mix cornstarch, sugar and salt; stir in remaining 1/3 cup milk. Add to scalded milk and chocolate mixture and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and smooth.

Continue cooking for about 5 minutes to thoroughly cook cornstarch. Cool slightly; stir in vanilla and pour into serving dishes.

----

2 cups whole milk

1/2 cup sugar

1/3 cup natural cocoa powder

4 teaspoons cornstarch

1/4 teaspoon fine salt

3 large egg yolks

2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

3/4 cup whipping cream

1/4 cup confectioners&#039; sugar

Put 1 1/2 cups of the milk, the sugar, and the cocoa in a non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a simmer, over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat.

Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1/2 cup of the milk, cornstarch, salt, egg yolks, and vanilla in a bowl. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the egg mixture.

Return to the saucepan to a medium-high heat, and cook, whisking constantly, until the pudding comes to a full boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and continue whisking until thick, about 2 or 3 minutes more.

Pour the pudding into 6 small cups. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight until set.

Just before serving pour the cream into a chilled bowl. Whip the confectioners&#039; sugar into the cream with a whisk or a hand held mixer, and continue beating until soft peaks form. Take care not to over beat the cream or it will be grainy. Serve each pudding with a dollop of whipped cream on top.

Answer 2

Hasty Chocolate Pudding - This is a delicious one.

This pudding whips up in no time in your microwave... great for when you&#039;re craving a quick chocolate fix! Stir in some chopped bananas before chilling for a nutrition boost.

1/2 cup white sugar

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

3 tablespoons cornstarch

2 cups milk

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the sugar, cocoa and cornstarch. Whisk in milk a little at a time so the mixture does not have any dry lumps.

Place in the microwave, and cook for 3 minutes on high. Stir, then cook at 1 minute intervals, stirring between cooking times for 2 to 4 minutes, or until shiny and thick. Stir in vanilla.

Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming, and chill in the refrigerator. Serve cold. Serves 4.

Just follow this recipe... this came to me years ago from a then-84 year old lady who used to make this for her children as an after school snack.  Simple and easy, once you taste this, you&#039;ll never settle for a jello pudding mix again!

Miss Rachel&#039;s Chocolate Pudding

1 cup sugar

5 tablespoons flour

1/4 cup cocoa

2 egg yolks

1 1/2 cups milk

1 tablespoon real butter

1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix sugar, flour, and cocoa in saucepan. Beat egg yolks into milk and add gradually to flour/sugar/cocoa mixture. Bring to a slow boil stirring continuously over medium heat. When pudding thickens remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla.

Answer 4

It is probably the original Hershey&#039;s recipe.  For all things chocolate like this, go to hershey&#039;s website for chocolate, as chances are, that&#039;s where the original came from.  That is my mother&#039;s fudge recipe.

Answer 5

The easiest way to make fantastic chocolate pudding is to go ahead and buy the instant choc pudding mix but instead of MILK use half and half .  Very rich and creamy.  No one will believe it is instant pudding.

If I make chocolate pudding from scratch I use a quart of half and half, 1/4 cup dry cocoa, 3/4 cup sugar and a half cup of corn starch.  Mix all -except cocoa -- while cold - put on medium low heat, stir Constantly, and make sure you are getting bottom of pan very clear each stir cycle.  Heat til it starts to bubble and pour into bowl or dessert dishes and chill.  You can add more sugar if you want it sweeter.

Answer 8

Silky Chocolate Pudding

Serves 6

1/4 cup cornstarch

1/2 cup sugar

1/8 teaspoon salt

3 cups whole milk

6 ounces 62% semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped (I used good quality semisweet chocolate chips; use 70% bittersweet if you want more of a dark chocolate kick)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1. Combine the cornstarch, sugar and salt in the top of a double boiler. Slowly whisk in the milk, scraping the bottom and sides with a heatproof spatula to incorporate the dry ingredients. Place over gently simmering water and stir occasionally, scraping the bottom and sides. Use a whisk as necessary should lumps begin to form. After 15 to 20 minutes, when the mixture begins to thicken and coats the back of the spoon, add the chocolate. Continue stirring for about 2 to 4 minutes, or until the pudding is smooth and thickened. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.

2. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer (or skip this step if you’re a slacker like me who is absolutely certain that there is nary a lump her puddin’) into a serving bowl or into a large measuring cup with a spout and pour into individual serving dishes.

3. If you like pudding skin, pull plastic wrap over the top of the serving dish(es) before refrigerating. If you dislike pudding skin, place plastic wrap on top of the pudding and smooth it gently against the surface before refrigerating. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 days (ahem, good luck with th
