My mother used to make this dessert whenever she could. During the Depression it was hard to find chocolate, but if she found some, she saved enough to make this pudding. I make it now and think of her every time I prepare it.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup 2% milk
  • 1/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  2. Stir in chocolate chips; cook and stir until melted. Remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla. Spoon into dessert dishes. Serve warm or chilled.
