Chocolate Pudding

Here's a microwave pudding recipe from DebbieM!

Quick Chocolate pudding (for the microwave) (from Allrecipes)

1/2 c. castor sugar/bura

1/3 c. cocoa powder

3 T. cornstarch

2 c. milk

2 t. vanilla extract

1 T. butter

Chopped chocolate bar (optional)

In a microwave safe bowl, whisk together the sugar, cocoa and cornstarch.  Whisk in milk a little at a time so the mixture does not have any dry lumps.  

Place in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes on high.  Stir, then cook at 1 minutes intervals (important!), stirring between cooking times for 2-4 minutes, or until shiny and thick.  Stir in vanilla and butter.  If you want a little more richness, add a chopped chocolate bar. 

Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming, and chill in the refrigerator.  Or, if you like warm pudding, eat it right away!  4 servings.
