Easy to Make at Home! Chocolate Milk Pudding
This is a recipe for a simple and delicious chocolate milk pudding made without eggs or cream, using plenty of milk and chocolate.
It's perfect for those times when you want to enjoy the richness of chocolate but find mousse made with lots of eggs and cream a bit heavy. This recipe allows you to savor the intense flavor of chocolate and enjoy a refreshing aftertaste.
Tips for making delicious chocolate milk pudding
This is an easy recipe that can be made with ingredients you already have at home, but there are two important tips to keep in mind:
Add milk to the chocolate little by little and slowly melt the chocolate completely
Although it may seem easy to quickly melt chocolate by adding warm milk all at once, in reality, the chocolate may not melt well and may become grainy. It requires a bit more patience than melting chocolate with cream, but adding milk little by little and melting it thoroughly is the key.
Mix the pudding mixture while applying the bottom of the bowl to ice water until it thickens
If you cool the pudding mixture while it is still lukewarm, it may separate while chilling. Therefore, it is important to mix the pudding mixture thoroughly by applying the bottom of the bowl to ice water until it thickens.
The Gâteau Magique, a French cake that separates into two layers, has also become popular. So even if the pudding ends up separating into two layers, it can still be quite delicious.
Ingredients
- Chocolate - I use Callebaut 811 with 54.5% cocoa content. *Caution! Callebaut's chocolate is in the form of chocolate chips for easy melting, but not chocolate chips for baking! ( chocolate chips for baking is highly resistant to heat and does not melt easily.)
- Milk
- Granulated sugar
- Sheet gelatin
Instructions
Soak the sheet gelatin in cold water to soften. If using powdered gelatin, combine the powder and 2 tablespoons of water.
Put milk and sugar in a pot and heat it.
Add milk little by little into the bowl with chopped chocolate and mix well each time to melt the chocolate. (Be careful not to add milk all at once, as the chocolate may not dissolve completely in the milk and remain lumpy.)
Add the softened gelatin and stir to dissolve.
Strain the pudding liquid and mix until thickened, placing the bottom of the bowl over ice water.
Pour into a container and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
Serve topped with whipped cream if desired!
Storage
If you top with whipped cream, please consume on the same day.
The chocolate milk pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-4 days if wrapped with plastic wrap or covered in a jar.
