If you&#8217;re curious about the difference between the two, I highly recommend reading through my post on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/natural-vs-dutch-process-cocoa-powder\/\">natural vs. Dutch process cocoa powder<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Milk: <\/strong>For best results, I recommend using whole milk. If you use a lower fat option, your pudding will be runnier and won&#8217;t set up as well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Granulated Sugar: <\/strong>There&#8217;s one cup of sugar in this recipe, which creates a sweet but not <em>too <\/em>sweet pudding.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cornstarch<\/strong>: Also known as cornflour in some parts of the world. This thickens the pudding and makes it super smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Salt: <\/strong>Is needed to enhance the chocolate flavor and balance out the sweetness of the sugar. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Unsalted Butter: <\/strong>Adds richness and creaminess. If you only have salted butter on hand, just reduce the salt to \u215b of a teaspoon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vanilla Extract<\/strong>: Creates a more nuanced chocolate flavor. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"1813\" data-id=\"54410\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=1360%2C1813&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of a cocoa powder mixture in a metal saucepan. \" class=\"wp-image-54410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=340%2C453&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=680%2C907&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=249%2C332&amp;ssl=1 249w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=498%2C664&amp;ssl=1 498w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=348%2C464&amp;ssl=1 348w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=696%2C928&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=640%2C853&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-1.jpg?resize=150%2C200&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"1813\" data-id=\"54411\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=1360%2C1813&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of a milk and cocoa powder mixture in a metal saucepan. \" class=\"wp-image-54411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=340%2C453&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=680%2C907&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=249%2C332&amp;ssl=1 249w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=498%2C664&amp;ssl=1 498w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=348%2C464&amp;ssl=1 348w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=696%2C928&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=640%2C853&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-Step-2.jpg?resize=150%2C200&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Make Chocolate Pudding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This homemade chocolate pudding has a few extra steps than a box mix, but not many!

You&#8217;ll know it&#8217;s ready to come off the heat when it&#8217;s thick enough to easily coat the back of a spoon or rubber spatula. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1721215942172\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What&#8217;s the best way to thicken runny pudding? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If your pudding seems runny after boiling for one minute and does not coat the back of a spoon, return it to the stove and continue cooking (stirring often) until it&#8217;s thickened up. Keep in mind that the pudding will also thicken more as it cools and once it&#8217;s chilled.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1721216105149\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What&#8217;s the best way to thin pudding that&#8217;s too thick? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If the pudding is too thick after it&#8217;s had time to chill, you likely overcooked it. You can stir the pudding to break it up, then add additional milk (one tablespoon at a time) until it reaches your desired consistency. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1721216157405\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How long does homemade pudding last? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">It will last up to three days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Because this recipe uses cornstarch, I do not recommend freezing it because it will curdle and separate once it&#8217;s thawed out.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"1813\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=1360%2C1813&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"An overhead view of a pot of chocolate pudding garnished with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. \" class=\"wp-image-54399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=340%2C453&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=680%2C907&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=1152%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1152w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=249%2C332&amp;ssl=1 249w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=498%2C664&amp;ssl=1 498w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=348%2C464&amp;ssl=1 348w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=696%2C928&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=640%2C853&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-5.jpg?resize=150%2C200&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-lightmint-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recipe Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For the richest, creamiest pudding, make sure to use full-fat dairy products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not turn the heat up too high! This pudding needs to be cooked at medium heat. If you try to rush the process by increasing the heat, your pudding will turn out grainy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As the pudding comes to a boil, whisk it regularly to prevent lumps from forming. I also prefer to scrape the sides and bottom of the pan with a rubber spatula occasionally so that it doesn&#8217;t stick and burn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don&#8217;t skip the plastic wrap when cooling the pudding. Pressing plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the pudding prevents a skin from forming on top as it chills.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe-video\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-video-container-54311\" class=\"wprm-recipe-video-container\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-video\"><div class=\"mv-video-target mv-video-id-o0pds2pdubav1i9quttk\" data-video-id=\"o0pds2pdubav1i9quttk\" data-ratio=\"16:9\" ><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-54311\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"54311\" data-servings=\"8\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-custom\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-normal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?fit=200%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-200x200 size-200x200\" alt=\"A glass filled with chocolate pudding.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?w=1360&amp;ssl=1 1360w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=340%2C340&amp;ssl=1 340w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=680%2C680&amp;ssl=1 680w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=250%2C250&amp;ssl=1 250w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=500%2C500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=170%2C170&amp;ssl=1 170w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chocolate-Pudding-11s.jpg?resize=96%2C96&amp;ssl=1 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-head\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-uppercase\">Chocolate Pudding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-meta-container wprm-recipe-times-container wprm-recipe-details-container wprm-recipe-details-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-table-borders-top-bottom wprm-recipe-table-borders-inside\" style=\"border-width: 1.5px;border-style: solid;border-color: #3e4146;\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-prep-time-container\" style=\"border-width: 1.5px;border-style: solid;border-color: #3e4146;\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-italic wprm-recipe-time-label wprm-recipe-prep-time-label\">Prep Time: <\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-time wprm-block-text-normal\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-prep_time wprm-recipe-prep_time-minutes\">10<span class=\"sr-only screen-reader-text wprm-screen-reader-text\"> minutes<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-unit wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-prep_time-unit wprm-recipe-prep_timeunit-minutes\" aria-hidden=\"true\">mins<\/span><\/span><\/div><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-cook-time-container\" style=\"border-width: 1.5px;border-style: solid;border-color: #3e4146;\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-italic wprm-recipe-time-label wprm-recipe-cook-time-label\">Cook Time: <\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-time wprm-block-text-normal\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-cook_time wprm-recipe-cook_time-minutes\">15<span class=\"sr-only screen-reader-text wprm-screen-reader-text\"> minutes<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-unit wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-cook_time-unit wprm-recipe-cook_timeunit-minutes\" aria-hidden=\"true\">mins<\/span><\/span><\/div><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-table wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-custom-time-container\" style=\"border-width: 1.5px;border-style: solid;border-color: #3e4146;\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-italic wprm-recipe-time-label wprm-recipe-custom-time-label\">Cooling &amp;
