1/2 cup sugar (100g) 1/3 cup cocoa power (33g) 2 cups whole milk (480ml) >> medium heat, stir frequently, not boil just stream >> in another boil 2 large egg yolks 2 tbsp cornstarch 1/4 cup whole milk (60ml) >> whisk ready 2 tbsp unsalted butter (don't add in yet) >> drizzle in 1st mixture slowly while vigorously mixing 2nd mixture >> cook again to change consistently 2 tbsp butter 2 tsp vanilla extract
I can't believe it never occurred to me that I could just MAKE pudding and I didn't need instant mix. It's already cooling in the fridge as we speak lol. Thank you for reigniting my love of baking, John!
I also have been making Chocolate pudding since I was 9. I'm 73 now. We made it for my brother's bd every year into a chocolate meringue pie. I use the same ingredients but I put all together except the butter and vanilla in a blender, then cook it over heat whisking it until it boils while stirring for 1 minute. Then add the butter and vanilla. Kudos John.
I love how you didn’t edit out the spill but included it as a learning lesson for us all! I love your recipes. Thank you for sharing. You are awesome❣️
In the 60’s cooked pudding for dessert after dinner was very common. No pudding cups. Cooked on the stove earlier in the day so it could cool for dinner time. We always let a “skin” develop because that was the best.
I make the jello cooked pudding once a week. Always had that as a kid. Top it with cool whip or follow John’s homemade homemade recipe. Never the instant pudding though 👎
With just a minor tweak in the method I've been making this pudding for nearly fifty years. I made it four times in the last two weeks alone. It's a hit around here. Cheers, john.
Thank you, John, for the great recipe and insipiration! My girls love the pudding and we cook it together! Always cook a double portion. One does not live long enough in the fridge. For extra chocolate pudding, I also add 25 g per portion of chopped dark (70%) Lindt chocolate at the end after butter - works perfect without espresso. Cheers!
OH MY GOSH! I made so many mistakes in this recipe like the measurement and putting whites in the yolks but it turned out perfect AND gave my hand a workout! You are now my favorite cooking TH-camr ❤❤
This might be the best chocolate pudding I've ever had. Just made it the first time and I will make it many more times. The instructions were perfect. The result was DELICIOUS!
This is the best chocolate pudding, fast and easy. I’ll never buy store bought pudding again. Your directions are great and so easy to follow. Thank you.
Made it with just one whole egg instead of two yolks, came out great too! I spreas it on a plate so it would cool down faster. meanwhile, I scrapped off every bit of it from the pot. thank you for the recipe 😋👍
I tried this recipe for the first time today. I happened to have soy milk on hand, so I decided to try it with soy milk instead of regular milk. Other than that I followed your instructions to the letter. It came out beautifully and delicious. I also am one who likes the skin when it forms. I have always preferred pudding to mousse. I like it thick and rich rather than light and fluffy. Very quick and easy to make and very easy cleanup. I've tried several of your recipes and they always come out perfect, just the way I like them.
TOTALY AWESOME! Have followed previous recipes where I've made the same mistakes as you have shown on your videos. But this time, I was able to get ahead. That's why I added the milk to the eggs BEFORE adding the Cornstarch, in order to avoid duplicating your mishap.😏
my go-to is to whisk all the dry ingredients with the yolks. then add the cold milk while continuing to whisk. then put on the heat with the rest of the steps. works like a charm without scrambling the yolks or compromising the texture. easier and fewer things to clean! just the pot.
Hi John this comment has nothing to do with pudding. Actually it’s about your fantastic recipe for white chocolate macadamia nut cookies. These cookies have totally driven my son off of the deep end he loves them and I am not very far behind him. The caramelization of the white chocolate is key 🔑 and although it takes some time, it is totally worth it. That caramelized chocolate makes the cookies. I made a batch for him on Saturday, I got 22 nice sized cookies he devoured almost half of them before he left my house to go home. He just bought some more macadamia nuts for me to make him some more cookies. My son (42 y/o) the Cookie Monster. 😂
I made his cheddar biscuits last night for the first time. It made twelve, we ate 6 and there’s only two of us. 😂 Yum!Yum! yum! Every recipe I have tried of his is delicious.
I just tried this recipe. It’s good! Super easy. If I can make it, anyone can! 😅 I used 1/3 monk fruit sugar and vanilla oat milk. It still tastes good.
This is so easy and delicious! You are my favorite cooking channel. If I go on youtube for a cooking video, I go to you. You make everything so simple and explain it well enough that I understand the recipie. Thank you!
You are my favorite person in the world .. any time I'm looking for something to make or a specific recipe, I go straight to Google and type it, and who comes up every time.... John. Always love your recipes. You're the best!
Ohhh John!!! You have ruined us from making boxed pudding FOREVER. We made this exact (no modifications) recipe last night and it was as delicious as it was easy. Ridiculously delicious. Ridiculously easy. Glad I doubled the batch... I predict quad batches will be ground zero for all future pudding magic. Thank you for the best Chocolate Pudding recipe I've ever made. Wowsers indeedy. 💞
Well about 20 minutes after I watched this i had to make it. Just finished my hot bowl waiting on the cold version. It was delicious and I know what is in it super bonus. No more instant or cook pudding mixes. Going to look for the vanilla and banana version now 😊
Oh my god! This is the best recipe for chocolate pudding! I have tried and we loved it! Just follow instructions and you will have a perfect pudding!! This guy’s recipes are always so delicious and easy to make 😋😋🙌🏻🙌🏻
Just made this recipe for the 1st time and it is delicious!I had to stop myself from tasting it while it was warm. Currently waiting for it to cool off. So good.
I learned how to make this at school, over here in England, without the addition of the butter. It is cheap to make, and a quick, easy and delicious pudding!
I love how this u does everything naturally, unlike most of the other people who are either black or white. They have no idea of perfect balance of humane reactions and perfect skills
i love that after watching your video so much, when i read the recipe like on this line "Use real vanilla extract for the best flavor. Try making my homemade vanilla extract ahead of time! It is so flavorful." i can hear and see how you say it in video when saying the "It is so flavorful." part lol
I made this tonight and love it. It is a different recipe than my mom used,but it is sooo good. Going to make it again and put it in a graham cracker crust
I have to admit, this is a very nice pudding recipe. I followed your method to the T and I was able to top my vanilla bean cheesecake with it. We’re having it for dessert tonight. Thank you for sharing such an easy recipe. I’m keeping it in my AnyList recipe app. 😊
I've always used the Herhey's recipe. It uses three tablespoons of corn startch, no eggs. The rest of the ingredients are the same, just in slightly varying amounts. All in one pan, very fast and is smooth and creamy.
Thanks. BTW--bought your cookbook. Very well done. Good quality book, lots of color pictures, and interesting recipes. Thanks. Best for continued success to you and you family.
I love watching your channel and I’m always trying to figure out how to make the recipes low carb. It can be done and taste amazing! Thank you for your incredible recipes. 🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for all your cool recipes! Who doesn’t like real chocolate pudding…we always made it as our go-to dessert for 7 people! I’m one who loves the skin on a cold pudding…I save it for the last few bites but of course lick all of the hot remaining bits in the spoon…don’t think me bad but if I think my milk has only a few days left before it turns, I always make chocolate pudding!!!
Its wonderful...my 1st time doing it and it is so rich with flavors and while whisking just can never stop tasting it..best recipe for chocolate pudding premium taste indeed... tq John... 😂
Just found your channel. How exciting for me! Have printed so many of your recipes and am a self teaching cook want to be. You are a great teacher and fun to boot. Where do you get a lot of your measuring cups? And that beautiful pepper grinder? Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful charm.
To get Coco powder to dissolve add Coco, sugar & a splash of the milk until you have a wet sand like consistency. Stirring will use the coarseness of the sugar to dissolve the Coco powder. Doesn't take much. Add the rest of the milk & easy mode.
This looks so good and reminds me of Snack Pack, which I loved, as a child! This is so much better, because it doesn't have any frankenfood in it! No GMOs! I need to try this. Thumbs up. (He forgot the pinch of salt). UPDATE: Tried this, and added 1/2 teaspoon of espresso powder, and this pudding was delicious! Super easy recipe. Fun to make, and even funner to lick the bowl and spoon. My husband and I both loved this.
I'm going to try this tomorrow. I made a vanilla pudding the other day, first time, OMG it was so good......hot😂. Can't wait to try this chocolate. Thank you for sharing🥰
I’m throwing away my recipe. I’ve been making chocolate pudding for a long time but it was not silky like this one. I just made it. It is amazing hot or cold. Silky! Thank you for sharing! Now I need a vanilla pudding recipe similar to this.
Very nice recipie John! They looks amazing and so chocolate! Can we make the recipie with "delact" milk? I ask you because i have allergy on lactose! Have a nice day! 👍👏🍫🍫🍫
Hi John. Love your recipes. My Momma made this for many years. My only comment though is about your gorgeous copper pans. I think you need to restore their beautiful exteriors to being back their beauty.
Can I use flour instead of corn starch? It’s hard to find where I live. Update: I found out I can substitute flour if I use 2 tsp flour for every tsp of cornstarch. Next time I will sift the flour into the mix though because it did cause tiny clumps. Still tasted really good so I’m planning on making it again. Thanks!

God bless you 😅❤
I can't believe it never occurred to me that I could just MAKE pudding and I didn't need instant mix. It's already cooling in the fridge as we speak lol. Thank you for reigniting my love of baking, John!
We can make our own marshmallows too!! I haven't tried it yet, but choosing flavors and colors is fun to think about
Yes, everything you buy has to be made, so of course you can make it!
This isn't baking though is it 🤔
@@Krawna nope
Comments like these make me lose hope in humanity
I'm probably a strange person because I love Hot pudding and I also like the thick skin on cooled pudding! Great recipe!
I was just coming to say the same thing! So yummy!
I love hot chocolate pudding 😍 my husband says I'm weird 🤣
Ohmigosh! I love the thick skin too!!
I’m not the only weirdo!😄
That thick skin is the only reason I make pudding 😂
I also have been making

I always have trouble regulating the heat which is why I can't make decent eggnog but your recipe sounds much easier. Thank you.
I love how you didn’t edit out the spill but included it as a learning lesson for us all! I love your recipes. Thank you for sharing. You are awesome❣️
No you are awesome

❤😂❤😂
I remember... But do you know of a recipe without cornstarch and eggs... Using flour and eating it hot? Like porridge? Thank you😊
@@youllbeblessed
Don’t know of any.
I make the jello cooked pudding once a week. Always had that as a kid. Top it with cool whip or follow John’s homemade homemade recipe. Never the instant pudding though 👎
And you can sit down and enjoy it! lol
With just a minor tweak in the method I've been making this pudding for nearly fifty years. I made it four times in the last two weeks alone. It's a hit around here. Cheers, john.
What’s your tweak. I’d love to know 😊
Yes I wanna know what your tweak is! Please 😊
Don't hold out on us.
Is it salt? 🤔🤔
@@JDS279 I bet it’s maybe putting a little alcohol in it maybe. Not salt. Sweet things need a little salt
Finally, a chocolate pudding I can make without losing control of my life!
I understood this referring Lol.
Thank you, John, for the great recipe and insipiration! My girls love the pudding and we cook it together! Always cook a double portion. One does not live long enough in the fridge. For extra chocolate pudding, I also add 25 g per portion of chopped dark (70%) Lindt chocolate at the end after butter - works perfect without espresso. Cheers!
I have a lot of respect for a pro who is willing to let the world see his slips and mishaps. Well done, sir! I too love chocolate pudding.

I love how John explains the why of what he does!
I just made this!!! I also like warm pudding..and the skin..no more store bought for me ..absolutely delicious
Thank you for a wonderful recipe!

As I live in Ireland I really appreciate the fact you have the measurements in mls and grammes!
I made this today, waiting for it to chill, but I licked the whisk and it tasted delicious! 😊 Can't wait for my family to try it! ❤
I'm a huge fan of all your recipes and teaching style. ! And you've a very good sense of humour too... Thankyou!
My mother thanks you for this. She doesn't know about it yet, but I expect I will be delivering batches of this throughout the long Texas summer.

I found this channel to find a cake I non baker can make. I found the butter cake recipe and it was a hit on Easter. Can't wait to try this one
I just tried this recipe. It’s good! Super easy. If I can make it, anyone can! 😅 I used 1/3 monk fruit sugar and vanilla oat milk. It still tastes good.

Nothing like a rich and delicious chocolate pudding. Great recipe John! 😋 😋

I double batched this, poured the final product into 8x 300ml jars to go in the fridge for the kids to eat and it was a hit!
I made this tonight and love it. It is a different recipe than my mom used,but it is sooo good. Going to make it again and put it in a graham cracker crust
I love pudding when it is still hot. I love coconut whipcreme on top. Soooo good ❤
I made this and I cannot believe how easy it is to make pudding. I had no idea. Will be making this again in the future

I just made this chocolate pudding again. Just the right sweetness and flavourful. It's just glorious! 100% recommended 👏🫶
Made this just today. It's delicious and even better than the store bought
John, I made this today and my toddler and I absolutely LOVED it! Thank you for this cracking recipe. ❤
thank you for the recipe i will do this this evening - my son was asking of chocolate pudding for 2 days now -- thank you John -
i made it this evening -- and my son said it was delicious -- i mean your recipe is delicious - thank you John -- i appreciate your teaching -
You and I have a very different definition of easy.
God bless everyone.
You are awesome! I love the chocolate mousse you do & I can't wait to make this with my daughter!
Pudding is so good on a cold, rainynight
L💗VE chocolate pudding. Never liked the skin as a kid but now I really love it - it seems to have stronger chocolate flavor to it .
My favorite pie is my mother's homemade chocolate pie. The custard is similar to this pudding.
I love watching your channel and I’m always trying to figure out how to make the recipes low carb. It can be done and taste amazing!
Thank you for your incredible recipes. 🤗🤗🤗
Thanks for all your cool recipes! Who doesn’t like real chocolate pudding…we always made it as our go-to dessert for 7 people! I’m one who loves the skin on a cold pudding…I save it for the last few bites but of course lick all of the hot remaining bits in the spoon…don’t think me bad but if I think my milk has only a few days left before it turns, I always make chocolate pudding!!!
My grandma used to make everything homemade, Inc bread and chocolate pudding and I didn't like mine covered, I loved eating the skin it was delicious.
Wanted something sweet, so I made this. Thanks for the video and recipe.
Yum, I might make this on Sunday for dessert!
I've just made this John. Thank you... It's absolutely delicious.
I don’t know why I like you so much John, but I do. You are one of my fav chefs. ❤
When my kids were young, I made homemade chocolate pudding a lot 😊
I have everything including the espresso powder!!! I'm making mini chocolate cream pies. I even have good french Cocoa powder 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Its wonderful...my 1st time doing it and it is so rich with flavors and while whisking just can never stop tasting it..best recipe for chocolate pudding premium taste indeed... tq John... 😂
Just made this with expresso, yummy! Who knew I could make pudding. Thanks🥰
John thank you for the recipies! I tried your fudge brownies and mac and cheese ..they came out wonderful!!!
That looks so goooood. I'd have to double or even triple the recipe.
I absolutely love your videos! Thank you for sharing with us! 😊
SO Glad you like them! Thank you!
John this is would be a good recipe to perfect to get rid of those piles of easter eggs the kids don’t want. thx for the method.
Do you think you’d be able to use coconut milk or some other nondairy substitute for whole milk or do we need the milk fat for it to set correctly?
I love your channel! So authentic. Messes and all. 🤗❤️
Esse pudim ficou totalmente diferenciado ,maravilhoso parabéns

Do you know what corn starch substitute would be a good choice for this recipe? I can't have corn.
To get Coco powder to dissolve add Coco, sugar & a splash of the milk until you have a wet sand like consistency. Stirring will use the coarseness of the sugar to dissolve the Coco powder. Doesn't take much. Add the rest of the milk & easy mode.
Best best recipe of chocolate pudding!!!!!!
This looks so good and reminds me of Snack Pack, which I loved, as a child! This is so much better, because it doesn't have any frankenfood in it! No GMOs! I need to try this. Thumbs up. (He forgot the pinch of salt). UPDATE: Tried this, and added 1/2 teaspoon of espresso powder, and this pudding was delicious! Super easy recipe. Fun to make, and even funner to lick the bowl and spoon. My husband and I both loved this.
I'm going to try this tomorrow. I made a vanilla pudding the other day, first time, OMG it was so good......hot😂. Can't wait to try this chocolate. Thank you for sharing🥰
I can confirm this was so delicious!! Thank you for your amazing recipes!❤
That looks like exactly what the kids want. (and me too). That's on the menu for tomorrow.
I’m throwing away my recipe. I’ve been making chocolate pudding for a long time but it was not silky like this one. I just made it. It is amazing hot or cold. Silky! Thank you for sharing! Now I need a vanilla pudding recipe similar to this.
I love this recipe! Excellent tutorial... entertaining and funny too.
Very nice recipie John! They looks amazing and so chocolate! Can we make the recipie with "delact" milk? I ask you because i have allergy on lactose! Have a nice day! 👍👏🍫🍫🍫
I did it 2 times❤ it's so good. Thank you too much
Mmm, definitely one of my favorites, I enjoy it warm and never cover to cool because I think the skin is the best🧡🧡🧡
That looks awesome, I'm definitely going to try it. Thanks for posting it!
アメリカの本物のプディングが食べたくてこのレシピをみつけました❤
さっそく作ってみたら、美味しかった🇺🇸🎉
Hi John. Love your recipes. My Momma made this for many years. My only comment though is about your gorgeous copper pans. I think you need to restore their beautiful exteriors to being back their beauty.
I made it !!! Really good recipe not to sweet love it ❤
Definitely this or the chocolate mousse is the next recipe of yours I'll try to make ❤
This is a great recipe, it's going to become my go-to for an everyday chocolate pudding.
I am so going to make this today!!! UPDATE: I did make this, and it was delicious!!! I will be keeping this recipe. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Can I use flour instead of corn starch? It’s hard to find where I live.
Update: I found out I can substitute flour if I use 2 tsp flour for every tsp of cornstarch. Next time I will sift the flour into the mix though because it did cause tiny clumps. Still tasted really good so I’m planning on making it again. Thanks!
