- 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract

Whisk together the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan until combined. Gradually whisk in the whole milk until smooth with no dry pockets remaining.

Set the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a low boil, about 8–10 minutes. Once it reaches a boil, continue whisking for 1 full minute — the pudding should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and hold a clear line when a finger is drawn through.
