This is one of the quickest chocolate fix that anyone could possible make. Its not only quick but its perfect for 2. I used Evaporated milk and the taste was wonderful. This is such a creamy, dreamy pudding that I think, it deserves to be cooked on top of the stove. Mine was done in about 10 minutes. start to finish. Best part was I got to enjoy the smell of the melting chocolate. What a wonderful smell.Janie

The recipe called for just the right amount of cornstarch and is a simple way to avoid a mix and serve up something homemade.

I can't believe how easy this is! My 6 year old granddaughter helped me make this yesterday. She loves my homemade chocolate pudding and she thought this one was wonderful. She has the recipe memorized and we will certainly make this often. It does taste like the cooked version. Thanks Mary Ann for a great recipe!
