How to Make Homemade English Chocolate Pudding
- In a medium saucepan, heat 2 cups of whole milk over medium-low heat until it just begins to simmer. Watch carefully to prevent scorching.
- Remove from heat. Immediately add 6 ounces of finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, ½ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup cornstarch, and a pinch of salt until light and frothy.
- Gradually whisk the warm chocolate milk mixture into the egg mixture in a slow, steady stream, ensuring a smooth consistency. Pour the combined mixture back into the saucepan.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon for 5-10 minutes, or until the pudding has thickened considerably and coats the back of the spoon.
- Divide the pudding evenly among six ramekins or small bowls.
- Cover each ramekin tightly with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to fully chill and set.
- Serve chilled, topped with freshly whipped cream and chocolate shavings for an extra touch of elegance.
