Homemade chocolate pudding with cocoa and chocolate

I made this chocolate pudding with cocoa and chocolate. As a result, it tastes heavenly chocolatey.

Use high-quality baking cocoa without sugar or other additives for the recipe. Also use delicious, good quality dark chocolate. I had some with at least 60% cocoa content.

Optionally, you can simply increase the amount of cocoa powder in the recipe and leave out the chocolate.

Heavenly creamy with milk or cream

To make the chocolate pudding particularly creamy, you should use milk with a high fat content, just like for the vanilla pudding. I used organic raw milk from my local farmer, which I also use to make cream.

The milk was used fresh in the recipe without allowing the cream to settle on it. So it had a fairly high fat content.

If you want your chocolate pudding to have an even creamier consistency, replace some of the milk with the same amount of cream in my recipe.

Serve with toppings

For me, the chocolate pudding tastes best chilled, just like the vegan chocolate mousse. I therefore chilled it for 1 hour after cooking and cooling.

The chocolate pudding is delicious on its own. For even more chocolate flavor, I sprinkled it with grated chocolate before serving.

Whipped cream is also the perfect topping for a chocolate pudding. You can also serve it with a chocolate sauce. Or enjoy the pudding with fresh berries and roasted nuts.
