Just like Grandma used to make. Full of flavor and very creamy. I made a double batch and I am glad I did, it is disappearing fast. And very easy to make. No more pudding from a box for me,this is so much better. Thanks for a great recipe. God Bless.

Fantastic!! I had been craving chocolate pudding for like two days and decided to make it from scratch instead of buying the boring box version. It turned out phenomenal and I'll definitely be making this again. As for my personal taste, I could have appreciated a little more salt but it was still very good. One great hint: USE A DOUBLE BOILER!!! However, when using a double boiler to make pudding: boil the water in the bottom pot on high FIRST before adding the top pot. While waiting on the bottom pot to start boiling, add all the dry ingredients to the top pot and whisk until WELL blended to get rid of any dry clumps. Once the dry ingredients are blended, add the top pot to the pot of boiling water and then add your milk a little at a time while whisking briskly. This technique will give you a flawlessly smooth texture without any clumps AT ALL. ENJOY!!

I loved this pudding, I too followed others advice and added heaping tablespoons of cocoa and it turned out fabulous, very flavorful. The kids loved it! I will make again.

Mmmmmm.....just lovely!! My "Ouma" (Granny in Afrikaans) taught me to make this pudding. The only thing I do differently is to add 1 or 2 Tblspns of brandy and, of course, the butter. I have also made the pudding with 1 cup less milk and, once cold, folded in 1 cup of whipped cream. No matter how you prefer it though, you can't go wrong with this pudding as my daughter has also been making it since she was 10yrs old.

AMAZING!!!! Best chocolate pudding ever!!! the butter really makes the difference!! I followed the recipes exactly, and it turned out perfectly. Once it starts boiling, it does thicken very quickly, so make sure you keep an eye on it! Really good with sliced bananas or with coconut. Even passed my picky daughter's test! She has never liked homemade pudding! Thanks for such an easy, fast, and delicious recipe!! Your mom would be proud!

What the heck did I do wrong here! Our pudding came out tasting like... I don't know, bland. Not really a "mmmm chocolate pudding" taste. The reviews are good so I gave it a three, but it honestly came out like a two. Maybe more cocoa powder?

I tripled this recipe, yes tripled, and it turned out great. I only had 2% milk and margerine so next time I'm going to use whole milk with some half and half, and real butter to make it richer but it was very easy and delicious this first time making it. My husband had never tasted homemade pudding and was blown away with the taste. He may eat all of it by himself in one night if I don't hide some in the freezer soon, LOL! Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Much better than store bought! The second time I made it, I used brown sugar and doubled the cocoa. I also reduced the cornstarch, so it doesn't go solid when it cools.

I loved this recipe! I followed another user's suggestion and used 1/2C brown sugar and heaping tbs of cocoa powder. The pudding turned out great! I cannot seem to stop myself from "sampling" it every time I'm near the fridge!

I made this as a quick midnight snack and it definitely cured my chocolate craving. I upped the amount of cocoa powder and added in a bit more butter to make it extra rich. If I wasn't in such a hurry, I would have sifted my cocoa powder because I ended up with little lumps in my pudding. They were cooked lumps, but I like my pudding smooth. I chilled the leftovers and had some this morning - yummy! Thanks for sharing!

Mmmmm...... Pudding.... Simply delicious. Satisfied my late-night chocolate craving, without having to leave my house. I followed the recipe very closely, and it turned out perfect. Next time I might add some instant coffee or maybe some peppermint extract.

I haven't had scratch pudding in years. Wow. I will not be able to go back to the box. I added a little cinnamon and instant coffee and it really enhanced the depth and richness.

This was a very easy recipe and my family like it. I was a little hesitant about putting so much cornstarch in, so I reduced it by half. The texture was very creamy. However, it didn't thicken up as much as I'd hoped. I will definitely put more cornstarch in next time.

Used double the cocoa and vanilla, as per suggestions, and the flavor was spot on. The texture is still a little thin, even using full-fat milk and simmering it for a while. Still, the flavor was so good noone cared.

it reminds me of my mother`s pudding . it`s really better than the pudding powder coz it does`t have the weird taste that coming from the preservatives . it`s simple , delicious and cheap, and U can make it lighter using fat free milk and no butter.
