How to Make Chocolate Wasabi Pudding

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix, 2 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder, 1/4 teaspoon wasabi powder (start with less if desired), and 1 teaspoon lime zest until well combined.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups cold milk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Divide the pudding evenly among 4-6 small serving dishes.
  4. Cover each dish tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to set completely.
  6. Before serving, sprinkle a pinch of wasabi powder over each pudding for an extra kick (optional).
