Steps

  • 1

    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.

  • For an even richer flavor in this pudding, look for double-Dutch dark processed baking cocoa.
