Cook this recipe

  • whole milk-2 1/2 cups
  • granulated sugar-1/3 cup
  • sweetened condensed milk-1/3 cup
  • unsweetened cocoa powder-1/4 cup
  • cornstarch-3 tablespoons
  • instant coffee granules-1 tablespoon
  • unsalted butter-1 tablespoon
  • vanilla extract-1 teaspoon
  • fine salt-1/8 teaspoon
1
Combine the dry ingredients
Whisk
Medium saucepan

Whisk cocoa, coffee, sugar, cornstarch and salt until evenly combined in a saucepan off the heat. Use a saucepan of at least 3 quarts.

1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tablespoon instant coffee
1/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
2
Whisk in the dairy
Whisk
Medium saucepan

Slowly whisk in the milk, adding it in a steady stream to prevent lumps, then whisk in the sweetened condensed milk until the base is smooth and fully blended.

2 1/2 cups milk
1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
3
Cook until thickened
Whisk
Medium saucepan

Set the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the pudding thickens noticeably and begins to make slow, gentle bubbles, about 7 to 9 minutes.

Whisk constantly while cooking to prevent scorching on the bottom of the saucepan.

Use medium heat so the milk mixture thickens gently without boiling over.

4
Finish with butter and vanilla
Whisk
Medium saucepan

Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla until the butter is fully melted and the pudding looks glossy and smooth.

Use care when moving the hot saucepan off the burner.

1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5
Strain the pudding
Fine-mesh sieve
Heatproof bowl
Rubber spatula

Pour the pudding through a fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof bowl, using a spatula to press it through for an extra silky texture.

Pour the hot pudding slowly through the sieve to avoid splashes and burns.

6
Portion and chill
Refrigerator
Plastic wrap
Small serving cups

Divide into heatproof dessert cups and refrigerate promptly for at least 2 hours, until cold and set. Cool briefly, about 10 minutes, only until safe to transfer. Choose cups with room for each portion; eight-fluid-ounce cups suit the base portions. If desired, cover the surface with food-safe wrap suitable for warm pudding.

Let the pudding cool slightly before transferring it to serving cups to avoid burns.

7
Serve
Small serving cups

Serve chilled, giving each pudding a gentle stir if desired for a soft, creamy texture before serving.
