Homemade Chocolate Pudding

Posted by thewrighttaste, July 17, 2008 at 9:51 AM

So...I was playing in the kitchen last night. I've had a craving for chocolate pudding. I don't do boxed mixes for anything!

I perused several recipes online, and picked one in which the author stated "in my family for years...blah blah blah....so good...blah blah blah".

I must have tainted taste buds, because the texture was way too close to the boxed instant to make me happy...kind of curdled, but not?? The taste was OK...I added a tablespoon of cocoa over what the recipe called for.

I can make a great custard for pies. And, it usually involves bringing the milk, et al, to a boil, then tempering the eggs and bringing back to a boil. But...I've never done chocolate.

This recipe actually called for the eggs to be added in with the milk before heating. Could this be the problem?
