Oat Milk Chocolate Pudding
Cook15 minutes
ServesYield 4 to 6 servings
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup/65 grams granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup/30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 cups/480 milliliters nondairy milk, preferably oat
- 3 to 4 ounces/85 to 115 grams bittersweet bar chocolate, finely chopped (see Tip 1)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, use a wooden spoon or silicone spatula to stir together the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt. Slowly stir in the milk and keep stirring until smooth and combined.
- Stir the mixture constantly over medium-low heat, scraping the bottom, sides and corners of the pan, until the pudding thickens, begins to bubble, and coats the back of the spoon or spatula, 5 to 10 minutes. (If the pudding is coating the bottom of the pan too quickly, reduce the heat.)
- Add the chocolate and stir vigorously until the pudding is very thick and smooth, about 30 seconds longer.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Spoon the pudding into a serving bowl or individual cups or ramekins. Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled (see Tip 2). It will thicken as it cools.
