Classic Chocolate Pudding

Great for kids and for the kid in all of us. Deceptively easy to make and absolutely delicious, serve pudding cups for dessert one evening and then pour the remaining pudding into ice-pop molds and freeze overnight for an icy cold treat.

Method

In a medium bowl, blend cornstarch with salt. 


Slowly pour in 1 cup milk, whisking until smooth. Set aside.


In a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat, mix remaining 2 cups milk with sugar and chocolate chips, stirring frequently until mixture is smooth and bubbles just barely start to form around the edges, about 4 minutes. 


Reduce heat to medium. 


Stir the cornstarch-milk mixture, and then add it to the hot milk and chocolate, whisking constantly until the mixture thickens completely, 3 to 5 minutes. It will coat a wooden spoon. 


Whisk in vanilla.


Transfer pudding to small bowls or ramekins.


Place a piece of waxed paper over each to prevent a skin from forming. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until completely chilled.
