Home-made hands down. aaaaaaaaah. ;-) Thank you very, very much, Deb! Do you think flour would work instead of cornstarch? I’m glad you reported back! I just made this with 1% milk and Nestle chocolate chips because that was all I had. Drop in 2 TB butter, stir. Tried a Mark Bittman recipe for vanilla a few wks ago, and that was even worse (although it could be b/c I used 2%…). My mother made it about the same way at first, though with Hershey’s cocoa, and poured hers into a baked pie shell, topping it with whipped cream. Won’t ever try that again. Again, tastes fine–just very very heavy and I can only take a few bites because it’s so rich. Both were yummy! it thickened but didn’t set (i almost sloshed one on the floor taking it out to check), and i tasted it and the texture was awful. It was dark and delicious. Thanks for the recipe. This was soo rich. Me and my family are not big on desserts but we have our sweet tooth moments every now and then :), Hey, the recipe looks and sounds absolutely delightful! I don’t think I would have had a problem by sticking to the recipe. She needed us to do it, she said! When cornstarch is used as a thickener, the liquid must come to a boil for it thicken correctly, and it’s hard to get something to boil when you’re using a double boiler (sort of the point of a double boiler.) 90% of the time my recipe search begins and ends with Smitten Kitchen (not to mention the 40 or so old favorites I fall back on oh-so-regularly). I followed the instructions perfectly, so, not sure what went wrong. Thank you for such an AMAZING recipe. Yumminess. anyway, the result was so tasty and encouraging that I’ll be browsing around your site for more ideas. It’s why people think I’m a good cook — I’m not, but don’t tell them ;). I mean, you would have rightfully scoffed. Also, the ghiradelli bits I grabbed didn’t incorporate very well. Deb, the payoff for this simple and quick treat is so huge. I made it for my roommate, who just had really complicated wisdom tooth surgery, and he has to survive on this sort of thing for a while. I ate a portion warm;-) This would be a recipe worth buying whole milk for, though. Could my corn starch have been stale or ineffective? OMG!.. I absolutely love this pudding, but I also had some trouble thickening. The milk chocolate didn’t get as firm but I loved the flavor of the milk in the milk chocolate. I couldn’t agree more! this sounds so good (particularly after a few of the intimidating recipes in the NY Times last week!). BTW, I only had 1% milk in the house, so I replaced about 3/4c of milk with sour cream. a little too sweet but a quickly fixed with a small tweak in the future. It took me upwards of 25 minutes to get it there. My boyfriend have made this three times already. Loved this recipie! Cocoa is cheaper. Anyways. I did it for the first time with your recipe for his 30th Birthday and it was fabulous. This is perfect! It was sooo good, but is there a trick for lumpfree pudding? My family thinks this confection deserves a better name, lest one is misled to think it wears a store-bought graham cracker crust and cool-whip topping. Made enough for 4 easily! Thanks so much for this recipe!!! I suggest bread? Just made it, and the pudding is currently cooling down in the refrigerator…tasted it…and it was beyond amazing…will certainly be making it again! Better than a treadmill, and I’d like to think I earned my pudding treat. While our children are grown, aka empty nesters, chocolate pudding can be a perfect dessert for two! Long time lurker, first time commenter. Meanwhile, mix the corn starch and 1/2 cup milk, sugar and chocolate together and add to hot milk and it will quickly thicken (20 seconds or less). I’ll prove to him vegan pudding is just as good!! You started in a double-boiler, then a saucepan, then move over to the food processor, then the food processor a second time, then the saucepan again and then the food processor. needed something chocolate & grand but quick and simple to feed to the dh and kids after dinner on valentine’s day. . I cannot even tell you how excited I was. I also added a teaspoon of coffee. Yum!

Forgot the cornstarch once until after the first minute or so; it refused to thicken. I made this last week and it turned out great. And I hate the treadmill. Thanks again for a wonderful (EASY) recipe! :). Sift the flour into a bowl; add the butter, eggs and sugar, then beat with an electric whisk for 1 min or until well combined. Made this a few months ago with antique cornstarch resulting in thin pudding. My only mod was replacing 1 cup milk with 2% b/c I ran out of whole. I have made this pudding several times before and have always loved it. Just an FYI. Chocolate Chips. – Deb, feel free to nuke this comment if it is inappropriate. I made this using tapioca powder today and it worked beautifully. You just have to stir the whole time. I tried the recipe twice in a month, it’s so addictive and so easy! One clue is the color. 1 star; 2 star; 3 star; 4 star; 5 star ; 4 ratings Rate. this pudding looks to die for. i cant wait to try it again with some good dark chocolate and whole milk. It seemed thicker in the pan than it is now. For the thickening issue: I didn’t use a double boiler but if I have troubles with my milk setting up I stir less vigorously so that a layer forms on the bottom, once that happens and is mixed in, it seems to thicken up just fine. i ate what didn’t fit in my bowls warm out of the pan it was so good — i did the lower sugar/all bittersweet version and it’s definitely better to me than cozy shack. Hi Kat, recognizing that your offer was personal to Deb, if you are now or find yourself in a surplus position in starter, I live in Dumbo and would love to expand its lineage for years to come!! Yummy pudding indeed. I LOVE your blog! Guittard is my favorite for baking — high-quality but mid-price — but I can’t always get it. Another glorious thing about this recipe is that it works for vegans or those with dairy allergies if you use rice or soy milk and vegan chocolate such as Equal Exchange Organic Very Dark Chocolate. Going to make some more right now with Green & Black’s dark chocolate. i ended up trying to bring it to a simmer and as soon as I saw it start to bubble I turned it down every so slightly just so it wouldn’t, and at that temp it thickened right up :). Always thought eggs were a “must” but then you have to temper them, lest they scramble and turn your pudding into a messy, lumpy soup! Can I use arrowroot powder instead of cornstarch!? I’m addicted to chocolate and I wanted to make a pudding from scratch. Your recipe is similar to my cornstarch pudding dish, except that I’m too lazy to setup a double-boiler. Stir until smooth. I just tried a new pudding method extrapolated from Cooks’ Illustrated’s divine butterscotch pudding recipe. The first time I made this it was too sweet. pea&pear http://www.thechefbite.blogspot.com. I am 8 months pregnant and craving pudding, but don’t have any “box pudding” in the house. I made this chocolate pudding this afternoon for dessert tonight and it was a big hit! Could you use any other kind of milk, like 2%, 1% or skim?? (i’m looking at you, ghiradelli, which tastes like plastic and old rum balls…). You’ve done it again! I also use a single pot instead of a double boiler or double boiling setup. Because that’s what 60% is about, the content of cocoa in chocolate. 11:49 pm just poured this into 5 pretty coffee cups @ 3/4 c each! Great recipe! of the southwestern pulled brisket.
