How to Make Homemade Vanilla Pudding
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
- Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Add the vanilla extract and butter.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens significantly (about 8-10 minutes).
- Reduce heat to low and continue to whisk for another 2-3 minutes to prevent scorching and ensure a smooth consistency.
- Remove from heat and pour the pudding into individual serving bowls or a larger dish.
- Cover the surface of the pudding with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to fully chill and set.
- Serve chilled and enjoy! Top with whipped cream, berries, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra special touch.
