Cook the Mixture
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Vanilla and Butter
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and unsalted butter until fully melted and combined.

Cool the Pudding
Pour the pudding into serving dishes or bowls and cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
