Chocolate Chip Pudding is easy to make and tastes so much better than the box.

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Total Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cup milk
• 3/4 cup cream or half and half (both work cream makes it richer)
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• pinch of salt
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips or regular chocolate chips

Instructions

1. In a pan combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Whisk in milk, cream (or half and half).
2. Cook on medium to medium high heat, while continuing to whisk. Cook until the mixture starts to boil and thicken. You don't need to whisk constantly but you do need to stir or whisk often so that it doesn't burn.
3. As soon as the mixture boils reduce heat to low. Continue stirring until mixture thickens. This will take 2-3 more minutes. It will thicken more as it cools, but you do want it to be a pudding like texture.
4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and butter.
5. Let cool for 5 minutes or so and stir in chocolate chips.
6. Pour mixture into individual sized bowls or into a large bowl. Serve warm or cover with plastic wrap pressed directly on pudding to prevent a skin from forming on the top. Refrigerate until serving.
