Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Plastic wrap

Ingredients
  

  • 5 Tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 dash salt
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 2 Tablespoons butter chopped into small pieces
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, stir together cornstarch, cocoa powder, sugar, and salt.
  • Slowly stir in cold milk until combined.
  • Turn heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla extract.
  • Place a piece of plastic wrap directly over the pudding, so the pudding doesn't form a skin on top as it cools.
  • Allow to cool and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow it to set up.
