Finally, an easy, straightforward chocolate pudding recipe! Of course, I modified a little... Combo of almond milk and soy milk; used Sucanat instead of sugar and reduced to 3 Tbs; stirred in handful of Ghiradelli chips at the end and topped with slivered almonds and dried unsweetened coconut. Yum!

The almond flavoring dominated the chocolate, masking all other flavors. Could not get it to thicken at all. Will not be making again.

I am the one who submitted this recipe and I guess I was in a hurry because the introduction sounds like it was written by my 4 year old. It should read: This is "a" quick and delicious snack...Sorry for the screw-up.

This pudding was a hit thanks. Thickened up beautifully and I had no lumps...even without using a whisk. Just keep stirring like mad. Have also tried this recipe with peppermint essence instead of the almond and it was divine! Kids want me to make it again.

Very easy and very tasty! To the person who complained that it didn't thicken up...cornstarch will break down if whisked (or stirred) too much. The trick is to stir until it comes to a boil, cook no more than 2 minutes. Cooking longer and stirring too much will cause it to thin.

Just made this recipe and it was excellent. So easy. I even lightened it up by using skim milk and splenda and it was delicious!

This was excellent, super easy and very satisfying. I used almond milk and just a drop of almond extract. I liked the almond flavor and was very surprised that my five year old did, too! I thought it would be too "grown up" for her, but I was wrong.

Very easy to whip up and tasty, I didn't have any problems getting this pudding to thicken and I thought the almonds were fine. I put some sliced banannas on the top of mine.
