Chocolate Pudding

bowls of chocolate pudding with berries

Ingredients 

1/3 cup sugar
3 tbsp cornstarch
3 tbsp cocoa
pinch of salt
2 cups milk
1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, cocoa and salt to get rid of any lumps. Place over medium-high heat and whisk in the milk. Cook, whisking often, until the mixture boils and thickens – let it bubble for at least a minute to let it reach its full thickening potential.

Remove from the heat and add the chocolate chips; let sit for a minute or two, then whisk until smooth. Pour into bowls and let cool in the refrigerator. Serves 4.
