Chocolate Pudding

It was just a hasty, chocolatey experiment since we were all craving chocolate on that day. It started out with me trying to imitate a recipe on one of my favorite cooking YouTube channels “How to Cook Smarter” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InaPcLHViNI) and then my mom gave me an idea. I used the chocolate and milk like in the video but my mom’s suggestion was to thicken it using cornstarch. So I basically applied the recipe in the video with a slight twist to it. 

So without further ado, let’s get started!


Ingredients
  • 200g culinary chocolate (or any other chocolate bar) preferably dark
  • half a cup of milk
  • 1-2 Tbsp cornstarch (1tbsp dissolves in 1/3 cup of milk and is then added to the chocolate mixture)
  • a small cup of greek yogurt

Instructions
  1. In a saucepan over medium high heat, put the chocolate pieces with milk and stir until chocolate dissolves. 
  2. When it completely dissolves and starts to heat, add a tablespoon of cornstarch dissolved in a third cup of milk to the chocolate and stir well.
  3. Right before it boils, remove from heat and let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
  4. Add a small cup of Greek yogurt and stir with a spatula until the yogurt has vanished in the chocolate mixture.
  5. Pour the mixture into ramekins or small bowls and put it in the fridge to set for at least 2 hours or overnight.

  • Enjoy your delicious chocolate pudding 🙂
