Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1 3/4 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 ounces Mexican chocolate, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons unsalted butter

Directions

Place cocoa powder, cornstarch, sugar, salt, heavy cream, egg yolks, milk, and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until mixture comes to a boil and begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.

Remove from heat and strain mixture through a fine-mesh strainer set over a medium bowl; discard solids. Immediately stir in butter and vanilla until well combined. Place plastic wrap directly on surface of pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Transfer pudding to a refrigerator until chilled, about 4 hours.

                I was not as crazy about the pudding as some of the other reviewers...I thought it was good, but not fabulous. Plus, the Mexican chocolate was very expensive. I spent $ 4 for 2.8 oz (Taza brand), and I could barely detect any cinnamon flavor. Between the cost and the labor, I didn't think it was a great payoff. If I make these again I will just make a dark chocolate pudding from a box and add a little cinnnamon to it to give it that Mexican flavor.

                I used 3 oz of semi-sweet chocolate and about 1 teaspoon of cinnamon as a subsitiute for the mexican chocolate.

                I have Jobanna's answer.  Yes, you can use that chocolate but I like the other better.   I cannot find the Mexican chocolate that was shown  so I ordered it on line.  Only the Abuelit was available in local stores..  I have a measure magnet that says 1/8 C =1 oz.(fluid oz) = 2 Tbsp. = 6 tsp. = 30 ml.    So multiply any of these by 3 to get 3 oz. You need to grind the disks into a powder to measure correctly.  I use my coffee  bean grinder  I am going for 6 Tbsp.    Happy baking.

                Abuelita drinkng mix - by Nestle - a round disc with compressed chocolate ? Is this an appropriate substitute for the Mexican chocolate mentioned in this article?
