Mix dry ingredients:
In a medium saucepan, stir together granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Make sure there are no lumps so that the pudding has a smooth consistency.
Add milk:
Gradually add the whole milk to the dry mixture, stirring constantly. This gradual addition ensures that the mixture blends smoothly and without lumps.
Cook the pudding:
Place the pot over medium heat. Continue stirring the mixture constantly while heating. This prevents the pudding from sticking to the bottom of the pan and helps it thicken evenly.
Thicken the pudding:
Continue cooking and stirring until the mixture boils and thickens to a pudding-like consistency. This may take approximately 5-7 minutes. Once thickened, remove from heat.
Flavoring with Vanilla:
Stir in the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly to distribute the flavor throughout the pudding.
Cool:
Pour the pudding into serving bowls. If you prefer a skinless pudding, place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of each pudding. Chill in the refrigerator until solid, about 2-3 hours.
Serve with toppings:
Once cooled and set, top your eggless chocolate pudding with optional toppings like whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries for an extra special touch.
This egg-free chocolate pudding is a testament to the joy of simple yet delicious desserts. Whether you serve it to yourself or share it with your loved ones, it’s sure to be a hit. Enjoy the creamy, chocolaty goodness that comes together in no time, proving that delicious desserts don’t have to be complicated.
