HOW TO MAKE CHOCOLATE LOVERS CHOCOLATE PUDDING 

CHOCOLATE LOVERS CHOCOLATE PUDDING

If you love chocolate, as much as I love chocolate, I hope you will try this recipe. I have been perfecting it for a couple of years now, and the process has required a lot of delicious taste testing sacrifice on my part, but the end result is perfection: thick, ultra-chocolate-y, super rich and addicting....just right!!

 Ingredients:

2 1/4 cups milk (I use 2% milk, but any kind is ok)

1/2 cup whipping cream

1/2 cup brown sugar (I use dark, but light is ok)

3 egg YOLKS  (yolks ONLY)

3 tablespoons corn starch (very slightly rounded)(not heaping)

1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

3 tablespoons butter (cut into pieces)

1 teaspoon vanilla

Method :

Whisk the brown sugar and corn starch together and set aside. This step isn't absolutely necessary, but if you do it this way, the cornstarch will not clump up or lump up when you add the milk. 

Whisk the cream, milk and yolks together in a saucepan that has a nice heavy bottom (it prevents scorching). Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and whisk until smooth. Make sure you scrape the corners of the pan because the corn starch likes to "hide" there.

Cook on medium heat (stirring) until it gets thick and starts to bubble all over the entire surface of the pudding. TURN THE HEAT DOWN to a level where it still bubbles (but isn't going crazy) and cook/stir for another 30 seconds.

Remove from heat and add the butter, milk chocolate chips and vanilla; whisk until melted and smooth.
