Milk Chocolate Chip PuddingPhoto © Kimberley K. Eggleston
This smooth, creamy pudding is especially for the chocolate lover. Serve chilled, and garnish with a few shaves of chocolate, or a few fresh berries. It makes a lovely, light, sweet treat.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 Tbsp corn starch
  • 1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 cups non-fat milk
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 oz. milk chocolate chips (2 Tbsp)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation:

1. Combine sugar, cornstarch, and cocoa powder in a medium-sized saucepan. Gradually whisk in the milk until well-blended.

2. Over medium-high heat, cook the pudding, stirring constantly, until it starts to become thick and small bubbles begin to break the surface, about 4 minutes.

3. Have the egg beaten in a medium-sized bowl. Gradually add the pudding mixture into the egg, and whisk until well-blended.

4. Return pudding to the saucepan, over medium-high heat, and stir in the chocolate chips until they are melted and the pudding is smooth.

5. Remove the pudding from the heat, and stir in the vanilla.

6. Divide pudding among 4 small ramekins, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator.
