Use your favorite non-dairy milk (almond or oat milk)

You can use your favorite non-dairy milk in this recipe! Here are a few notes about the types of non dairy milk and what works the best in vegan pudding:

·         Oat milk: We like the consistency and flavor of oat milk: it’s one of our favorite vegan milk options! It’s our favorite for using in this pudding and has a neutral flavor. It’s also nut free.

·         Almond milk: Almond milk is a little thinner in consistency than oat milk, but it also works well in this pudding.

·         Soy milk: You can use soy milk for this pudding if you like! We haven’t tested it, but it should work in the same fashion.

·         Coconut milk: We don’t recommend coconut milk here: it can add a strong coconut flavor. It’s also higher in fat than the other milks. (Of course you can give it a try if desired.)

How to make vegan chocolate pudding: some tips

The method for making this vegan chocolate pudding is the same as a traditional chocolate pudding! You’ll whisk together cocoa powder, sugar, cornstarch, and milk until thickened, then remove from the heat and add chocolate. Here are some tips to keep in mind as you go about the process:

·         Whisk the dry ingredients fully, then gradually whisk in milk. The dry ingredients can make for lumps later if you don’t get them all whisked in.

·         Once it starts bubbling, stir often. Make sure to get into the edges of the pan so the pudding doesn’t stick.

·         The pudding will thicken fully as it cools. Pull it off the stove when it’s thick, but not fully set up into pudding consistency. See more below!

Refrigerating makes it fully thick!

The trick with homemade vegan chocolate pudding is that it thickens fully in the refrigerator. It will thicken to pudding-like consistency after refrigerating for about 2 to 3 hours. Here’s what to know about this process:

·         Plan in advance for the refrigeration step! The hands on portion of this recipe takes only about 10 minutes. But the refrigerating takes a few hours. You may want to make this the day before you plan to serve and store in the fridge.

 

·         Press plastic wrap or wax paper onto the surface of the pudding. This prevents a film from forming on the top of the pudding. Once it’s cold, you can remove the wrap.

 

·         Speed up the process by refrigerating in small serving dishes. This can speed up the chilling by about 1 hour or so, depending on the size of the dishes. But you’ll still need to use small pieces of plastic wrap or wax paper for the tops.

Ingredients

·         ¼ cup cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)

1/4 cup of Cocoa Butter

·         ⅓ cup granulated sugar (or coconut sugar)

·         1 pinch salt

·         2 ½ cups plain oat milk or almond milk (unflavored and unsweetened)

·         3 ounces (1/2) cup semisweet vegan chocolate chips

·         ½ tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1.    In a medium saucepan with the heat off, thoroughly whisk together cocoa powder, sugar, cornstarch, and salt, working to remove all lumps. Gradually pour in the milk in small amounts, whisking after each addition until it is smooth.

2.    Turn the heat to medium and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently.

3.    Once it just starts to bubble on the edges, reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 2 minutes (make sure to stir into the edges of the pan so it doesn’t stick). The pudding will continue to thicken and set as it cools, so it doesn’t need to be fully thick at this point.

4.    Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips and vanilla, stirring until fully melted.

5.    Transfer to a container and press plastic wrap or wax paper on the surface (this prevents a film from forming on the top). Refrigerate 2 hours until cold and set. Keeps for 1 week in the refrigerator.
