Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Sugar
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 20 Chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt.
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens and comes to a gentle boil. This should take about 7-10 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and butter until fully incorporated.
Allow the chocolate pudding to cool slightly while you prepare the cookie crumbs.
In a food processor or plastic bag with a rolling pin, crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs.
To assemble, spoon a layer of chocolate pudding into serving cups or dishes, followed by a layer of cookie crumbs. Repeat until all the pudding and crumbs are used, finishing with a layer of crumbs on top.
Refrigerate the assembled puddings for at least 1 hour to set completely and serve chilled.
