Easy Dark Chocolate Crémeux Pudding (gluten-free and eggless)
The easiest easy chocolate pudding! Sophisticated in its simplicity, this is a moreish, intensely chocolatey French Dark Chocolate Crémeux. A 4 ingredient wonder!
Equipment
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 mixing spoon
- 1 saucepan
- 5 or 6 small jars or serving bowls
Ingredients
- 30g cornflour (cornstarch)
- 500ml milk
- 30g sugar
- 100g dark (bittersweet) chocolate (55% to 85% cocoa content)
Instructions
- Put the cornflour (cornstarch) into a small to medium-sized heatproof bowl with a small amount of milk (about 3 tablespoons of milk). Mix the cornflour into the milk thoroughly and smoothly with a spoon so that there are no lumps.
- Pour the remaining milk into a small or medium saucepan. Add the cornflour (cornstarch) mixture to the milk and stir so that it is thoroughly mixed through. Add the sugar.
- Chop or break the bar of chocolate into squares and add the chopped chocolate to the milk, sugar and cornflour mixture. Heat over a low heat stirring with a wooden spoon all the time.
- Do not leave the hot milk mixture whilst it is being heated. The melted chocolate and milk mixture will suddenly come together and thicken very rapidly. Keep stirring all the time to avoid lumps.
- Working quickly, as the pudding mixture will thicken as it cools and start to set quite rapidly, pour the chocolate cream mixture into glass jars, glasses or other small individual serving dishes. When cooled, put the filled jars into the fridge to chill.
