Chocolate Pudding

Anything is good if its made of chocolate...
Who doesnt love to have chocolate pudding.. And that too when it becomes so easy to cook and have anytime you want.. Have it warm or cold, the way you like, it will always taste delicious than ever before.. This recipe is a keeper.. Always!!

Ingredients:
3tbsp custard powder (vanilla) / cornflour powder
2tbsp cocoa powder
3tbsp sugar
Pinch salt
1.5 cups milk
2tbsp chocolate sauce ( Hersheys chocolate syrup or melt chocolate chips/dairy milk/chocolate slab and use)
1/4tsp vanilla essence
For garnish:
Whipped Cream
Chocolate Chips
Method: Mix custard powder, cocoa powder, sugar and salt in a bowl.. Add in 1/2 cup milk and mix well to avoid any lumps and form a smooth paste.. Now boil remaining 1 cup milk in a pan. Reduce heat and mix in the custard and cocoa paste and keep stirring.. It will get thick in a minute.. Be careful it doesnt stick to the bottom.. Keep whisking for another minute till it coats the back of your ladle/spoon your using to whisk your pudding.. Its an indication that pudding is cooked and of desired consistency.. Now switch off the gas and add chocolate sauce (i melted a chocolate slab and used it) and vanilla essence.. Whisk it well for 2mins till it becomes smooth and fluffy.. Pour the mixture in individual bowls and set in fridge for atleast 3hrs.. Garnish it with chocochips and whipped cream before serving..
Note: You can melt chocolate in microwave at very low temperature ie 180watts for around 2mins, stirring every 3osecs
You can add chocolate chips/ walnuts or any nuts in the the pudding while setting to get an extra crunch..
