Directions

1 In 2-quart saucepan, mix sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt with whisk. Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until pudding boils and is thickened. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 2 minutes longer.
2 Remove from heat; gently stir in butter and vanilla until butter is melted. Pour into large bowl; cover surface directly with plastic wrap to prevent skin from forming. Cool 10 minutes. Serve warm, or refrigerate until serving time. Garnish with whipped cream.

This was decadent. My husband said "it was very rich and I loved how chocolately it was". A few changes/tips: it took double-triple the time to thicken than listed, I added some Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate chips with the butter step, I used Hershey's cocoa (not sure if Dutch processed), and you don't have to put it in one bowl, just straight into individual cups is fine. Add a dollop of homemade whipped cream to the top and it's great!

I have always used the Vanilla Cream Pie recipe (Chocolate Cream was a "variation") in the old Betty Crocker's Cookbook I received as a gift the year I got married... 1965. It was my cooking "bible" for years! However; with the Internet, it's to easy to expand. I compare lots of recipes. I must say this "Ultimate" Chocolate Pudding is even better... or at least that's what hubby says, and he KNOWS chocolate. It tastes richer and I noticed while preparing that it didn't take eggs... thought that was different.
