Silky Homemade Chocolate Pudding!

Better than any box mix — rich, creamy, and made from scratch! 🤎

This dreamy chocolate pudding is shockingly easy and made with just a handful of pantry staples. No eggs, no weird ingredients — just smooth, chocolate bliss in every bite. 🍮✨

🛒 What You’ll Need:

✔️ 5 Tbsp cornstarch

✔️ ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

✔️ 1 cup granulated sugar

✔️ Dash of salt

✔️ 4 cups whole milk

✔️ 2 Tbsp butter, chopped

✔️ 1 tsp vanilla extract

👩‍🍳 How to Make It:

1. Stir together cornstarch, cocoa, sugar & salt in a saucepan.

2. Slowly whisk in cold milk until smooth.

3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it boils.

4. Boil 1 minute, then remove from heat.

5. Stir in butter & vanilla.

6. Cover with plastic wrap (directly on surface) and chill 1+ hour.

🍫 So rich, so smooth, so nostalgic — you’ll never go back to boxed again!
