Chocolate Pudding

I've made a few attempts at pudding from scratch but this was one of the best!  The rich chocolate creamy flavor is worth the work.  This also makes great pudding pops; make as instructed and put in popsicle molds.

Chocolate Pudding
Martha Stewart Living Magazine

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
whipped cream, for garnish
chocolate shavings, for garnish

​​1. In a medium bowl, sift together cocoa, cornstarch, and salt.  Stir in sugar.

2. Add egg yolks to a bowl, and pour in 1/2 cup milk and the heavy cream over medium heat until mixture just comes to a boil.  Slowly whisk milk mixture into cocoa mixture.

3. Rinse out saucepan but do not dry (to help prevent scorching).  Return custard mixture to saucepan, and place over medium-low heat.  Stir in vanilla.

4. While stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook until custard has thickened slightly and is the consistency of mayonnaise, about 10 minutes (do not let it boil).  Don't worry if lumps form.  

5. Pour custard through a fine sieve into a clean bowl, discarding any solids.

6. Add chopped chocolate in two batches, stirring until thoroughly melted and combined after each addition.

7. Divide pudding among 6 serving dishes, cover with plastic wrap, and chill at least 4 hours or up to overnight before serving. 

​8. Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired.

    Jen's Kitchen...

    is the smallest kitchen ever.  We used to watch those decorating shows that said they were doing small kitchens and then could see that 4 of my kitchens would fit in their "small kitchens".
    Regardless of size, the kitchen is busy cranking out good things.  Most is natural/organic but that doesn't mean it's always healthy!
