Method
Pudding Preparation
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
Add Milk
Gradually whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain.
Cook the Mixture
Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens and begins to boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Finish the Pudding
Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and butter until melted and smooth.
Chill the Pudding
Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
