my sweet tooth was craving for a super quick chocolate fix... and so i came across this no-brainer no-bake choc pudding in one of my recipe notes.. what i love most about it is the fact that it is unbelievebly simple & easy to make.. all you have to do is to mix all ingredients into a saucepan and just stir away.. yup, it is indeed that simple :-)
1. In a saucepan, whisk in 3/4 cup sugar, 1/3 cup sifted cocoa powder, 3 tbsp of cornstarch & 1/4 tsp salt.
2. Over medium heat, gradually whisk in 2 1/2 cups milk. Ensure there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a boil till it reaches a thick consistency.
3. Remove from heat. Stir in 100g grated eating chocolate & 1 1/2 tsp vanilla essence.
4. Allow to cool slightly before consumption or chill for at least 1hr for best results.
there is a point to note though.. this recipe only yields about 3-4 ramekins.. hence if you have a large family like mine or have a significant number of guests coming over, you may have to repeat the recipe a few times or increase the amount of ingredients accordingly..
