Chocolate/Vanilla Pudding

• Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup cocoa and 1 tsp vanilla extract OR 2 Tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 cups milk
  • 3-4 Tbsp cornstarch (3 is fine for normal eating, but you need more if you want it to be properly thick)
• Instructions
  • Mix cocoa/vanilla, sugar, cornstarch, and a bit of milk in a bowl and set aside
  • Note: mixing the sugar and cornstarch together well before adding milk helps avoid clumps
  • Heat remaining milk until it starts boiling
  • Slowly add the cocoa, sugar, and cornstarch mixture
  • Keep boiling on low or medium heat for a few minutes, until it thickens
  • Pour into bowl and leave to cool
