Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1/3 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Whipped cream
- 1/4 cup Crushed peanuts or peanut butter chips (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually whisk in the milk to prevent lumps.
Set the saucepan over medium heat, whisking constantly until the mixture begins to thicken and bubble, about 8-10 minutes.
Once thickened, reduce heat to low and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes while whisking.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, peanut butter, and unsalted butter until fully incorporated and smooth.
Pour the pudding into a large bowl or individual serving dishes. Cover the surface directly with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming, then let cool to room temperature.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours to chill and set fully.
Before serving, top with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with crushed peanuts or peanut butter chips, if desired.
Enjoy your creamy Peanut Butter Vanilla Puddin'!
