How to Make Chocolate Mocha Pudding
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 3 cups milk until completely combined.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens significantly (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour the pudding into a bowl. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to fully chill and set.
- Before serving, whisk the pudding gently until smooth. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until desired consistency is reached.
- Serve chilled in individual bowls or elegant wine glasses. Top with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon. Optional: Garnish with chopped nuts, orange zest, or a drizzle of rum or orange liqueur.
