Jump to Recipe

I was pleasantly surprised when I found out how easy it is to make this creamy Milk Chocolate Pudding. It’s so yummy, and it gets even better when you top it off with whipped cream!

A few days ago, my son asked me to make him chocolate pudding. He never comes out and asks me to make him anything so I happily obliged. The thing is, I have never made pudding before. Or ever eaten it for that matter. Turns out, it is really easy to make and delicious to boot. And a huge hit with the 6 and under crowd. I used milk chocolate to make this and I used Guittard chocolate. I know that it is important to use quality ingredients, and in this case, it is really important as the chocolate is the star of the show. I am sure that it will taste good with regular chocolate chips, but when you use a quality chocolate it will blow you away.

Ingredients //

For the pudding:

• 2 Tablespoons sugar
• 2 Tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 Tablespoons cocoa powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups whole milk
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 4 ounces milk chocolate chopped
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

For garnish:

• Whipped cream

Instructions //

Step 1:

In a saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cocoa powder.

Step 2:

Add the milk and the cream and whisk. Cook the mixture over medium high heat whisking constantly.

Step 3:

When the mixture comes to a boil, let it boil for 2 minutes. The mixture will become really thick. Take it off the heat.

Step 4:

Put the chocolate chips in the bottom of a large bowl. Set out 6 ramekins.

Step 5:

Pour the chocolate mixture over the chips.

Step 6:

Add the vanilla. Whisk constantly until the chocolate has melted.

Step 7:

Pour the pudding into the ramekins.

Step 8:

Cover the tops of the pudding with plastic wrap or wax paper. Put the plastic wrap directly on the pudding to avoid getting a skin. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours before you serve the chocolate pudding.

This plastic wrap is the best out there. It doesn’t bunch up and rip like normal plastic wrap. I love it.

Step 9:

Top with a little whipped cream and you will have some seriously happy campers.

See, I told you so. Aren’t my boys super cute? Make some chocolate pudding with your babes and have some fun in the kitchen together.
