The butter really does make it amazing! It's delicious as a dipping pudding with the New Year's cookies listed on this site. http://holiday.allrecipes.com/az/NwYrsCkis.asp

I have never made a pudding without eggs and was pleasantly surprised how delicious and easy this pudding is. I doubled the recipe and used half for chocolate elairs, and because I had so much left over,I used the other half for rice pudding. Both were DELICIOUS!!! The pudding has a custard like consistency making it perfect for rice pudding. To make rice pudding, add desired amount of cooked rice to pudding and top with cinnamon. For a full recipe of pudding, I would suggest using 2 cups of cooked rice. If the pudding does develop lumps, pour the hot cooked mixture through a sieve. For the most flavor, use real vanilla extract. Unlike some puddings, this pudding keeps its consistency very nicely. I highly recommend giving the recipe a try!! It has become a permanent addition to my recipe collection. Thanks for sharing!!

This was the perfect fix for my midnight sweet tooth =) I Followed the directions exactly, Except since so many other reviews noted that it might be a little bland I added just a dash of cinnamon and a very small dash of allspice to my dry ingredients before mixing in. It gave it a homey flavor that was just right! I had no trouble with the lumpiness mentioned by others....just don't allow the milk to get too hot and Slowly mix in the dry ingredients while Constantly stirring...and like any other stovetop pudding, Don't stop stirring until it's done! =) wonderful, thank you for the recipe

This Pudding is awesome! I would just make a few changes. Here is how I make it. 1. In medium saucepan, wisk together milk & cornstarch till the cornstarch is completely mixed in (NO lumps!). Simmer till thick, stirring occasionally. Add sugar, salt & vanilla. Simmer just a little more, but don’t boil it. Stir in the butter. Pour into serving dishes. Its great either warm or cold, and even better with whipped topping!

Nice flavor. It came out a little "gloppy" though. I could see wisking an egg yolk into the cold milk and stirring constantly then cutting back on the corn starch. Maybe that would help with the consistancy.

This was so easy, fast and tastes wonderfully homemade. I put the milk in the pan, turned on the heat to medium just like the recipe says and started mixing the dry ingredients. As soon as they were mixed, I poured into the milk which was slightly warm. I whisked together and no lumps at all. The final product was smooth and creamy.

Very simply, very tasty and very worthwhile in trying. Great as a simple vanilla pudding or can be used to make coconut or banana cream pudding. Thanks for sharing

I made this using coconut milk instead of regular milk and it was the best coconut pudding you will ever taste. The dry ingredients I added first with a bit of cinnamon and i stirred to break up all the lumps. Then turn the heat on and slowly add the milk while stirring. You can dress it up with a lil toasted coconut on top but it's also good without.

This was very easy to make, I followed another reviewer's idea and mixed the ingredients together before I heated it and it was smooth. My big problem was the flavour it tasted gross to me, I'm not sure if this is the way homemade vanilla pudding should taste but I much prefer instant vanilla pudding. I threw it away.

This was really good. My pudding did have some lumps but it was still really good ( the texture didnt bother me.) I will definitely make this again and add fresh fruit to it. Thanks Rosemary.

Ii found the texture to be thick, and the pudding had way too much sugar..Although, it didn't have lumps... but i WOULD recommend to use it as a substitute for condensed milk...

Very good vanilla pudding. To avoid lumps, place cold milk in the saucepan, add dry ingredients and whisk until lump free and then cook as directed. If you like, place some fresh fruit in your dessert bowl and pour on the pudding. Thanks Rosemary.

This recipe isn't bad. Tasteful. I read reviews saying it was lumpy for them, but it definitely wasn't for me, perhaps it was my technique. I heated the milk, put the dry ingredients in a liquid measuring cup; once the milk was heated through I added a small portion of it into the dry ingredients to dissolve them completely before adding it back into the saucepan. Wisk that for a bit, add the butter/vanilla and voila..pudding. I'm actually going to be using this for a cake filling, so it's in the fridge now to thicken up even more and cool down. :o) This is a pretty decent 'base' pudding mix, I'd think you could add any flavor, banana, chocolate, mint, etc...even tapioca. :o)

I think this was ok for vanilla pudding. I would have to say it would be better as a custard tho. I added the cornstarch with the cold milk and stirred it till it dissolved (about 1 minute) then added in the sugar and salt. I cooked till thick and added in the vanilla and margarine. I would probably add 1/4 cup more milk and an egg the next time and make a custard. It was really thick. There was something missing and I think it was the egg. I would use this recipe when making cream puffs with a chocolate drizzle over top. It is not bad. Just different. Thanks for the recipe cause without it I would have not come up with a custard.

Great pudding(wonderful texture)... I put sliced stawberries in the bottom of my dishes and then poured the pudding over. I think it would have been too bland without the strawberries. I would recommend adding some sort of fruit. Used splenda instead of sugar and it turned out great Thanks for the great recipe!!!!!!!
