Ingredients
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 squares (1 ounce each) semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
3 Tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups reduced fat chocolate milk, divided
1/2 cup Reduced Fat Sour Cream
1-1-/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
Garnish: Additional sour cream
Additional cinnamon for sprinkling
Directions
1. In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, cocoa powder, chopped chocolate, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt. Place on stove over medium heat and whisk in 1 cup of the chocolate milk. Cook and stir until chocolate melts.
2. Gradually stir in the remaining 1 cup of chocolate milk and the sour cream. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is thick and smooth and bubbles pop on the surface, about 8-9 minutes. Remove pan from heat and stir in vanilla.
3. Pour mixture into serving dishes and immediately place a piece of plastic wrap directly touching the surface of the pudding. Cool slightly, then refrigerate until cold, or overnight.
4. To serve, place a small dollop of sour cream on pudding and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serves 4-6
