Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups whole milk, divided
¼ cup cornstarch
⅓ cup white sugar, or more to taste
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 cup milk and cornstarch in a small bowl. Whisk or stir with a fork until smooth and all lumps have been incorporated.

Continue stirring until chips are completely melted and pudding is smooth and thickened, about 7 minutes more.

Tips

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the pudding will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. Some recipes taste best when made with semisweet or bittersweet chocolate. You may also use dark chocolate or unsweetened chocolate; just add more sugar to taste.
  • Don't overcook the pudding: Pudding is best when it is slightly thick and creamy, but not too firm. Overcooked pudding will be grainy and rubbery.
  • Chill the pudding before serving: This will help the pudding to set and develop its full flavor.
  • Serve the pudding with your favorite toppings: Whipped cream, ice cream, fruit, and nuts are all great options.
  • Make the pudding ahead of time: Pudding can be made up to 3 days in advance. Just store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve.
