How to Make Chocolate Pudding Mix

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder, cornstarch, sweetener, and salt until thoroughly combined.
  2. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Transfer the mix to an airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place.
  4. To prepare pudding: In a saucepan, whisk together 2/3 cup of the pudding mix and 2 cups of milk (any kind).
  5. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a simmer. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Continue stirring for 1 minute more to ensure the pudding is fully cooked.
  7. Remove from heat and immediately pour into individual serving dishes.
  8. Let the pudding cool completely. It will thicken further as it cools. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving for optimal texture.
