This recipe is about the best you can do with chocolate in fifteen minutes. I used cake flour because I didn't have corn starch and added 1/4 cup of butter. Turned out great. This recipe is so much better than boxed pudding, it has a full flavor, but it isn't too sweet. Will definitely make again.

I rated this recipe based on following the ingredients and instructions exactly; it tastes good and is very easy to prepare. That being said, I've fiddled with it a bit and now make it with a two changes. I use 1/3 C. of sugar, and it's still plenty sweet; that saves getting out two dry measuring cups. The other change is the addition of a big spoonful of peanut butter. I stir it in while the pudding is still hot, and then I usually start eating right away. This pudding is great warm or chilled.

Yup, this was fantastic, and totally hit the spot. Even though I'm not a big fan of doing things in the microwave, the convenience and outcome were worth it on this one.

We couldn't wait for this to cool and ate it warm. I used powdered milk and water adding 3/4 cup powdered milk to the dry ingredients and mixed all with 1 3/4 cups of water. It sure was rich. We loved it. I also added about 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon before cooling.

Very good recipe. My husband loves this, and requests it at least once a week. I found it a bit sweet, so the second time I made it, I reduced the sugar to 1/3 cup, and the cocoa to 1/4 cup. I found that this reduction didn't compromise the rich chocolate flavor at all. I also added a pinch of cinnamon to give it a little bit of the Mexican chocolate flavor. Yum!

I thought this was amazing, and so easy. My husband would probably have enjoyed it with about half the sugar removed, but I thought it was perfect as is.

This was a winner! I didn't believe it could be so easy and I was nervous about using the microwave but I guess pudding elves did their magic after the second additional minute and it turned out perfect. It's not quite as creamy as traditional homemade egg-yolk recipes. I would compare it to what you'd find in a snack pack. Perfect for a chocolate craving and it satisfies the little ones who ask what's for dessert after every meal.

I love this recipe! I made this with my daughter and her friend, and they just loved it! We chopped up some fruit and nuts and then put it into the pudding after it was cooled. It was delicious! The only reason I give this 4 stars is because I found the flavor of the cocoa to be very strong. I'm not a big fan of cocoa.

Just adding my praise to the heaps this recipe has received. I have made it several times and it is a keeper. The boxed version tastes no better and costs more. Like other reviewers, I added a lump of butter and a bit of salt. I also cut the sugar a little.

Enjoyed this so much, I made two batches. Once cooled, I put the pudding in 1/2 cup plastic containers with lids which kept it so nice with no skin on the surface. Not only is this pudding quick and easy to make, it tastes much better than the store-bought stuff! Thank you for a great recipe.

This recipe is amazing! I can't believe I even wasted my time buying boxed pudding mix when this recipe was right here, all along. I used real Dutch chocolate and it came out excellent and very tasty! What an easy recipe for a delicious dessert made in no time! I shared this with my choco-holic sister and she was amazed at how good it was!

Wow! I was looking for a way to use up our milk before it turned and I ended up making two double batches of this! I have three pies and about four little cups of pudding. Keep microwaving till on the last cycle it really sticks to the spoon! I thought I had overdone it and then the last batch was better than the first. I did not change anything.

Amazingly easy and super yummy...I did add the salt and butter after tasting and it does improve it nicely. Definitely a keeper, especially since I am trying to get away from buying prepared foods and miss the pudding in the box (not any longer though)!

This is a very quick (in terms of prep) and easy recipe. It has a great chocolate flavor and it is great for a quick chocolate fix.

Awesome pudding. Quick, easy & tasty. I added one chocolate bar for an extra chocolate taste. I may never buy a pudding mix again.
