Best Milk Chocolate Pudding Recipes

OAT MILK CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, use a wooden spoon or silicone spatula to stir together the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt. Slowly stir in the milk and keep stirring until smooth and combined.
• Stir the mixture constantly over medium-low heat, scraping the bottom, sides and corners of the pan, until the pudding thickens, begins to bubble, and coats the back of the spoon or spatula, 5 to 10 minutes. (If the pudding is coating the bottom of the pan too quickly, reduce the heat.)
• Add the chocolate and stir vigorously until the pudding is very thick and smooth, about 30 seconds longer.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Spoon the pudding into a serving bowl or individual cups or ramekins. Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled (see Tip 2). It will thicken as it cools.

MILK CHOCOLATE PUDDING PIE WITH BROWNIE CRUST

Steps:

• For the crust: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Coat the inside of a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray.
• Melt the chocolate and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring continuously. Stir both of the sugars and the vanilla and salt into the chocolate mixture with a whisk. Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes. Stir in the egg and beat vigorously until fully incorporated. Add the flour and cocoa powder and stir just until combined; the batter should be sticky and fairly stiff.
• Spoon the batter into the middle of the pie plate and cover the batter with a piece of plastic wrap big enough to cover the pie plate. Smooth the batter across the bottom of the pie plate and 1/2 inch up the sides using your fingers. Remove the plastic wrap and bake until the top is crispy and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. (Check the batter after 10 minutes; if the sides are slumping or the bottom puffs up, use the rounded back of a large metal spoon to push the sides back up the pie plate and the bottom back down.) Set aside on a wire rack to cool, at least 15 minutes.
• For the pudding: Whisk the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch and salt together in a medium saucepan. Vigorously whisk in the yolks, then the milk until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture starts to thicken and simmer, about 4 minutes. Stir in the chopped chocolate and vanilla until melted, then remove from the heat. Pour into the pie shell and cover with plastic wrap pressed gently against the pudding's surface (only if you don't want a skin to form). Refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
• Shave some milk chocolate with a vegetable peeler or grater and scatter the pieces over the pie.

Remove from the heat, stir in the vanilla, and transfer to a clean bowl. Place a piece of plastic wrap over the surface of the pastry cream and let cool to room temperature.
• Spoon about 1 cup of the pastry cream into a 9 by 13-inch glass dish. Layer the cookies, bananas, and pastry cream in the bowl, ending with the pastry cream. Cover tightly and refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours or overnight. Just before serving, spread the whipped cream over the top of the pudding and sprinkle with the chocolate shavings.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 18 standard muffin cups with paper or foil liners. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with milk. Beat in melted chocolate.
• Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake until a tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 5 minutes, then remove cupcakes and let cool completely on rack. (Cupcakes can be made ahead up to this point and stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 2 days.)
• Transfer pudding to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/4-inch plain round tip. Insert tip in top of a cupcake and squeeze until cupcake begins to mound. Repeat with remaining cupcakes. Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes and up to 1 day. Spoon about 2 teaspoons ganache over top of each cupcake; top with chocolate curls. Refrigerate at least 15 minutes before serving.

Cook over medium heat, whisking, until thickened, about 2 minutes (the whisk should leave a thick trail when dragged). Remove from the heat. Add the chopped chocolate and vanilla and whisk until smooth.
• Divide the pudding among 4 ramekins or small bowls. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of each and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or overnight.

CHOCOLATE MILK CREAMY RICE PUDDING MADE THE OLD FASHIONED WAY

Steps:

• Either cut the recipe in half or find a baking dish that holds at least 10 cups ungreased; cooking UNCOVERED is essential.
• Set oven temperature to 275 degrees F.
• Move shelf to low center and keep dish near the front so you can just reach in and stir.
• Stir all the raw ingredients together; the milk will be cold and take awhile to start cooking.
• Cook for 40 minutes, reach in with fork and stir.
• Cook for another 40 minutes, reach in and stir.
• By this time the rice might have started swelling.
• Cook another 35 minutes and stir, the rice should be swollen, sticking together in clumps so stir a lot, mash down with fork, get in bottom edges of baking dish, try to get as many grains separated as you can.
• Cook for another 30 minutes and stir, most of the rice will not have clumped again.
• Fairly early on a skin will form on top, just stir it all back in each time until the last.
• After another 30 minutes, it should be about done so stir once more.
• Some of the rice should be floating near the top and it will look runny.
• Bake another 20 to 30 minutes; I let skin form on the final cooking.
• Remove from oven and set on trivet to cool.
• It's best to wait until it's entirely cooled to room temperature or just slightly warm before digging into it with a spoon; this takes patience.
• If you do it while it's hot, it's very runny and you will get too much creamy and what remains won't be as nice.
• It thickens as it cools.
• Store covered in refrigerator; it will thicken more yet, get sticky, chewy and creamy in spots.
• If it works for you, you can add cinnamon, raisins, or try other ideas.
• I don't know what would happen if you warmed the milk first but I think it wouldn't be the same.
• The cooking time may be up to 1/2 hour more than stated.
