Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whipped cream
- 0.25 cup Crushed peanuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, whisking continuously, until it begins to thicken and bubble. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Turn the heat to low and add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter. Stir until fully melted and smooth.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the pudding into serving bowls or glasses and allow it to cool slightly at room temperature.
Cover the bowls with plastic wrap, ensuring that the plastic touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours to chill and set.
Before serving, top with whipped cream and garnish with crushed peanuts, if desired.
