🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 20 pieces chocolate cookies
• 2.5 cups whole milk
• 0.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2.5 tablespoons cornstarch
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 ounces dark chocolate
• 1 cups whipped cream (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together granulated sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.

2. Gradually add the milk to the dry ingredients while whisking continuously to avoid lumps.

3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it begins to thicken and bubbles start to form. This will take about 8-10 minutes.

4. Once thickened, reduce the heat to low and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in dark chocolate and vanilla extract until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Let the pudding cool slightly for about 10 minutes.

6. While the pudding is cooling, crush the chocolate cookies into medium-sized crumbs. Reserve a few larger crumbs for garnish if desired.

7. In serving dishes or a large trifle bowl, layer the crushed cookies and chocolate pudding alternately, starting with a layer of cookies at the bottom. Repeat until all the pudding and cookies are used, ending with a layer of pudding on top.

8. Refrigerate the layered dessert for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to set.

9. Before serving, optionally top the chocolate cookie pudding with whipped cream and a sprinkle of chocolate shavings or reserved cookie crumbs.

10. Serve chilled and enjoy!
