Warm Chocolate Pudding

Author: melinmac

Ingredients

  • 1 chocolate bar
  • 3 T butter
  • 1⅓ cups sugar
  • ⅔ cup cocoa powder
  • ¼ t cinnamon
  • ⅛ t cayenne
  • ⅓ cup cornstarch
  • pinch salt
  • 4½ cups whole milk
  • 1 t vanilla

Instructions

  • Prep the chocolate and the butter - break the chocolate into bite-sized pieces. Slice the butter into pats or little cubes. Add the chocolate and butter to a small bowl, and microwave for only 20 seconds. It will be just enough. Set aside.
  • Mix the ingredients - In a medium saucepan on low heat, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, and cornstarch. Mix well. Add in the milk, and whisk until combined.
  • Bring to a boil - Increase heat to medium, stirring constantly until the mixture reaches a boil. Remove from the heat immediately.
  • Finish - Stir in the chocolate pieces, butter, and vanilla. Allow mixture to cool a bit, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming. Serve warm.
