Ingredients

2 cup Milk
2/3 cup Sugar
1 tablespoon Flour

2 tablespoon Cocoa (Well rounded)

Directions

1
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, flour, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and a dash of salt until well combined and free of lumps.
2
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking constantly to prevent clumping.
3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or whisk, until the mixture comes to a boil.
4
Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring vigorously, until the pudding is thick and smooth.
5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla extract and butter until the butter is completely melted and incorporated.
6
Pour the hot pudding into four serving dishes or bowls.
7
