Cocoa pudding

For a simple dessert to make, few ingredients and guaranteed taste, my recipe for cocoa pudding is for you. This cocoa dessert is special in that there are no eggs, so even those who are allergic can safely eat it. Let's see how to prepare the cocoa pudding. Ingredients 500 ml Whole milk 100 g Sugar 60 g Cornstarch 50 g Unsweetened cocoa powder 40 g Butter Vanilla 100 ml Fresh liquid cream 40 g Vanilla icing sugar Preparation To make the cocoa pudding you need a few steps, in a bowl we put the butter melted in a bain-marie or microwave, when it is lukewarm we add the sifted cocoa, starch and sugar. Let's mix everything. Don't be scared if a rather hard and compact mixture will form. In the meantime, heat the milk on the stove, when it is lukewarm, pour it into the mixture together with the vanilla essence and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together and when a homogeneous and liquid mixture has formed, transfer everything into the pot where we have heated the milk and bring to a boil, stirring constantly to avoid the formation of lumps. Cook over low heat until the mixture has thickened. We put everything in molds and let it cool completely initially at room temperature then then in the fridge for at least an hour. After the time has passed, remove the pudding from the mold and place it on a dessert plate. Whip the cream with the icing sugar and add a sprig to the pudding. Serve the cocoa pudding to your diners. Those with a sweet tooth can enrich the recipe with chocolate chips or fresh fruit. For a richer flavor you can add 50 g of dark chocolate to the pudding mixture. In addition to the stronger taste, the chocolate makes the pudding creamy and velvety in texture. It is a very simple dessert perfect to end a meal or as an afternoon snack.
