Preparation

Step 1

Whisk milk, sugar, cornstarch, cocoa and salt in a medium saucepan to blend. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir often with a whisk, going into corners of saucepan.

Boil 1 minute, whisking, until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in chocolate and vanilla until chocolate melts and mixture is blended.

Scrape into a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, gently pressing wrap directly against pudding. Chill at least 2 hours or until cold. Spoon into small cups or bowls; garnish.
