Ingredients

1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 tsp salt
3 cup whole milk (or half n half for greater richness)
6 oz dark chocolate (70%) (or half dark, half milk)
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Pour the cornstarch, sugar, and salt into a large pot. Whisk everything together to get rid of any clumps.

Turn the stove onto low heat and pour a steady stream of milk in as you whisk. Warm the mixture for 10 minutes, or until steam is rising from the milk and it's hot. Whisk occasionally to prevent clumps. Make sure the milk doesn't begin to boil. 

Add in the chocolate (broken up into pieces) and whisk chocolate in until melted and smooth. Continue to warm over low heat until the pudding is thick and beginning to bubble. 

Remove pot from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract. Place a sieve over a large bowl and pour your pudding through the sieve into the bowl. Use your whisk to scrape the pudding in the sieve to get as much pudding out of the sieve as you can. Any thick chocolate clumps left behind in the sieve can be discarded. 

Cover the the pudding with a sheet of plastic wrap, placing the sheet directly onto the pudding, and refrigerate until chilled - about 2 hours. Serve with chocolate shavings and/or whipped cream.
