How to Make Chocolate Silk Pudding

  1. Pour 2 cups of milk into a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish.
  2. Microwave uncovered on high for 3 minutes, or until the milk is hot but not boiling.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder until smooth.
  4. Gradually whisk the dry ingredients into the hot milk until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Microwave uncovered on high for 3 minutes, or until the pudding has thickened, stirring after 1 1/2 minutes. If it's not thick enough, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until desired consistency is reached.
  6. Remove from microwave and stir in 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) softened margarine, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon chocolate extract. Stir until well combined and smooth.
  7. Cover the casserole dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until completely chilled and set.
  8. Before serving, top with sliced almonds.
