Chocolate Pudding

Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup cocoa
• 1/4 cup corn starch
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 4 cups milk
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 tsp vanilla

Directions

1. Combine sugar, cocoa, corn starch, and salt in a saucepan. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring most of the time. Boil and stir 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add butter and vanilla. You can cover the top with plastic wrap to keep the pudding from forming a skin.
2. For vanilla pudding: omit the cocoa and use 1/3 cup cornstarch.
