Quick and easy chocolate pudding
Category: Desserts - Other

Suitable for a: vegan diet


Ingredients:
------------------------------------------------------

1/3 cup of sugar (I used brown sugar)
4 teaspoons of cocoa
2 tablespoons of cornstarch
2 cups of a non-dairy milk (I used vanilla soymilk)
A pinch of salt

OPTIONAL:
Add 1 teaspoon vanilla for added flavor


Instructions:
------------------------------------------------------

Mix the dry ingredients together well.
Slowly add in the milk, mixing the wet and dry ingredients together, well.
Once all of the lumps are gone, you may then add the vanilla and move to a saucepan.
Cook until pudding begins to boil and thicken (stirring frequently), then remove from the heat.
Let the pudding sit for 10 minutes, cover and then place in the fridge.

The pudding should take an hour or two to set.

Enjoy!

Make sure that the pudding boils and thickens...the first time I made this, I used the microwave (no saucepan in my dorm) and it came out too thin.

It tastes pretty good! I tried it again today and it was SLIGHTLY thin, but maybe I'm just used to a thicker type of pudding. Anyway, I haven't had pudding in a LONG time! I'm glad that I was able to make my own vegan pudding, that was quick and easy!

I made this pudding last night, and it was goooood! It was painfully easy, and it was super tasty. And it was plenty thick. I brought it to a boil, and then let it boil for maybe a minute, then let it sit for about 10 minutes, then I put it in little tupperwares, and I put the lid on tight enough to be touching the pudding, and that kept a skin from forming. Sweeet!

I would recommend this.


ETA: I used plain, sweetened soymilk.

MMmmmm....Sounds really good, I'll have to try it some time.

blitz some silken tofu in the blender with some cocoa powder, maple syrup and a drop or five of vanilla essence..... pour into ramekins, cups, or one great big bowl and chill (if you can wait that long!) :hungry:
