How to Make Creamy Milk Chocolate Cornstarch Pudding

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 3-4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (adjust for desired chocolate intensity).
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups whole milk and 1 cup heavy cream until completely smooth.
  3. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle simmer. This will take about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
  4. Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or a larger bowl. Allow to cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours for optimal chilling.
  5. Enjoy your creamy chocolate pudding warm, chilled, or at room temperature! Garnish with whipped cream, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries for an extra touch of deliciousness.
