How to Make Pudding Ice Cream

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix, and 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder until well combined.
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups whole milk until smooth.
  3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil that cannot be stirred down (about 1-2 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat immediately.
  5. Place the saucepan in a larger bowl filled with ice water; stir frequently until the pudding is completely cooled.
  6. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely chilled.
  8. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  9. Gently fold the evaporated milk mixture into the cooled chocolate pudding.
  10. Stir well to combine.
  11. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (usually 20-30 minutes).
  12. Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to harden further before serving.
