- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup Dutch processed cocoa powder (I used Rodelle Baking Cocoa
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon Rodelle pure vanilla extract
- 3 oz. dark chocolate finely chopped
- 1/4 cup Baileys Original Irish Cream
- whipped cream for garnish
- chocolate chips for garnish
Add the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt to a medium sauce pan and whisk to combine. Pour in the milk and whisk to combine.
Heat over medium low heat until the pudding thickens and comes to a low boil, whisking almost constantly - about 15 minutes. When thickened, stir in the butter and continue to stir for another minute or two.
Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, chopped chocolate, and Baileys Irish Cream. Stir really well until the chocolate is completely melted and the Irish Cream and vanilla are incorporated. Immediately pour into 4 individual dishes or into one large heat proof bowl. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the pudding (to prevent a skin from forming) and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Top with whipped cream and chocolate chips if desired.
