Description:
Less-guilt hasty chocolate pudding~
Ingredients:
2 tbsp packed brown sugar
5 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 tbsp cornstarch
1/8 tsp salt
2/3 C + 1 tsp milk
1 1/2 tsp butter
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
1) In a saucepan, stir together sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt.
2) Place over medium heat, and stir in milk. Bring to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from heat, and stir in margarine and vanilla.
3) Let cool briefly, and serve warm, or chill in refrigerator until serving.
Remarks:
This one tasted just like chocolate whipped cream while it was warm! Cooling thickened it slightly, so it became more like a pudding. I forgot to add in the salt, and omitted the butter in the original, accounting for the airy cream-like texture. Sieve the corn starch and cocoa powder to minimise clumping, and whisk everything in a bowl or blender before pouring into the saucepan to cook; these would save a lot of trouble getting the pudding to be clump-free. I guess I should invest in better cocoa powder as well, since 5 tsp of cocoa yielded less than satisfactory chocolate taste for me (a dark chocolate lover).
