QUICK CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• Stir milk, sugar, and cornstarch together in a saucepan; stirring continually, bring to a boil. Add cocoa powder, chopped chocolate, cinnamon, and whiskey to the milk mixture; cook and stir until thick, about 5 minutes. Pour into a casserole or baking dish.
• Refrigerate until cold.

ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, mix sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt with whisk. Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until pudding boils and is thickened. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 2 minutes longer.
• Remove from heat; gently stir in butter and vanilla until butter is melted. Pour into large bowl; cover surface directly with plastic wrap to prevent skin from forming. Cool 10 minutes. Serve warm, or refrigerate until serving time. Garnish with whipped cream.

CHOCOLATE CHIP PORTUGUESE SWEET BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350, and butter a 13x9 baking dish.
• Whisk milk, heavy cream and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
• Meanwhile scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean into milk mixture and add the pods.
• Heat milk/cream mixture to just steaming, but not boiling!
• Whisk eggs and yolks in a large bowl, and gradually add 2 cups of hot milk mixture to the eggs to temper.
• Pour tempered egg mixture into the saucepan with the hot milk.
• Strain mixture to remove any lumps and the vanilla pods.
• Spread bread cubes in prepared dish and sprinkle with the chocolate chips.
• Slowly pour custard over bread, being sure to saturate all of the bread. (If you can, it's nice to let it sit and soak evenly for 1/2 or so).
• Bake in the center of the oven for about 1 hour or until a small knife inserted in the center of the pudding comes out clean.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of the cream until smooth, then whisk in the remaining 1 cup cream. Set the pan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil, about 5 minutes. Continue to whisk and boil for 1 minute.
• Remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate and vanilla. Let stand for 5 minutes until the chocolate is melted, then stir gently until the pudding is smooth. (Do not stir too much or the pudding might thin out.)
• Divide the pudding among 6 small dessert dishes. Let cool for about 20 minutes to serve warm and soft, or chill for at least 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
