What if you couldn't buy pudding in a box? What if your microwave died on you today? Here is a super simple and quick recipe for pudding. I found this one on allrecipes.com and we all loved it in my house. No more boxed mixes for us. The recipe tells you to make it in the microwave but I wanted to make it on the stove and let me tell you it turned out just great! I added two squares of bakers chocolate and made us chocolate pudding. Try this recipe from scratch and enjoy.
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups milk
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 squares unsweetened bakers chocolate
In a saute pan, combine sugar and cornstarch. With a hand mixer, beat in milk and egg yolks until smooth. Cook on medium heat stirring until thickened. Blend in butter, vanilla and chocolate. Pour into serving dishes; cool.

ReplyDeleteAwesome! Just what I needed! Believe it or not, I was just thinking the other day of making some of scratch but didn't know how.

I have since been using this recipe and find its flavor quit pleasing. It is very similar to the original recipe I posted here, but if you have some type of coco or cocoa powder this works great. You might have to copy and paste to make this link work...
