1 |
Into a medium bowl, Sift together cocoa, cornstarch, and salt. Stir in sugar. Add egg yolks, and pour in 1/2 cup milk; whisk until well combined. |
2 |
In a medium saucepan, heat remaining 2 cups milk and the heavy cream over medium heat until mixture just comes to a boil. Slowly whisk milk mixture into cocoa mixture. |
3 |
Rinse out saucepan but do not dry. Return custard mixture to saucepan, and place over medium-low heat. Stir in vanilla. |
4 |
While stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook until custard has thickened slightly and is the consistency of mayonnaise, about 10 minutes. (Do not let it bowl.) Don't worry if lumps form. |
5 |
Pour custard through a fine sieve into a clean bowl, discarding any solids. Add chopped chocolate in two batches, stirring until thoroughly melted and combined after each addition. |
6 |
Divide pudding among six serving dishes, cover with plastic wrap, and chill at least 4 hours or up to overnight before serving. Garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, if desired. |
