Ingredients

• Milk: Make sure to use whole milk for the best flavor and texture.
• Dutch Cocoa Powder: I use organic Dutch cocoa powder for a rich chocolate flavor.
• Cornstarch: Organic cornstarch is used in place of eggs as a thickening agent. While traditional pudding uses egg yolks as a thickening agent, this recipe uses cornstarch. And, the peanut butter also helps thicken it too!
• Peanut Butter: Use a creamy peanut butter. If you want to make this more of a plain chocolate pudding, just replace the peanut butter with cashew butter or sunflower butter for a more neutral flavor that will let the chocolate shine through!
• Dark Chocolate: I use organic dark chocolate, but you can also use milk chocolate if you prefer.

Baker's Tips

• Always weigh ingredients for the best results.
• Make sure that when whisking the pudding over the stove that you don’t stop. It can clump easily unless you are whisking the entire time.
• Make sure to add in the peanut butter and chocolate chips immediately after the pudding is off the heat. You want these two ingredients to melt into the pudding so it’s key to do this right away when it’s hot.
• Whenever you cover pudding, be sure to place the plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding to avoid a film from forming in the fridge.
• Once pudding has set, be sure to store extra pudding in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
• Vegan – Replace the milk with coconut milk.

How to Make Eggless Chocolate Peanut Butter Pudding

Step 1

In a 2-quart pot, add the milk, cane sugar, cocoa powder, and cornstarch. Cook over medium/high heat and whisk until the sugar and cocoa are completely dissolved.

Step 2

Reduce the heat to medium/low and continue to cook for an additional 5 or so minutes until the mixture has reduced and is thick like pudding. It’s important to keep whisking the entire time to avoid any clumps.

Step 3

Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter and chocolate chips until completely combined. Then add in the vanilla extract and stir to combine completely.

Step 4

Transfer the pudding to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap tightly agaist the pudding to prevent a film from forming. Place in the fridge and allow to set for 4 hours or overnight.
