Ingredients

1 cup white sugar, or to taste
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
⅓ cup cornstarch
¼ teaspoon salt (Optional)
3 cups unsweetened almond milk
1 teaspoon unsalted butter (Optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Optional)

Directions

Whisk sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt together in a saucepan off the stove. Add 1/4 cup almond milk; whisk until smooth and foamy. Continue adding almond milk, 1/4 cup at a time, whisking after each addition.
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a simmer and starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in butter until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla, then pour pudding into a serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.

Tips

You can use any type of non-dairy milk instead of almond milk. You can even use regular milk if desired.

Variations:

Add 1 to 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules to the dry ingredients in Step 1 for a chocolate mocha pudding. (You may want to increase the sugar slightly too!)

Add 1/2 shot of rum instead of vanilla in Step 3.

Add sliced bananas to the chilled pudding before serving.

Line a casserole dish with chocolate wafer cookies or chocolate graham crackers, then pour pudding over top and chill as directed.
