Rich, glossy chocolate pudding starts with a simple stovetop base of sugar, cornstarch, and cocoa powder whisked smooth, then simmered with full-fat coconut milk and dairy free milk until it thickens into something silky enough to coat the back of a spoon. Chopped dairy free chocolate melts right into the hot mixture along with a splash of vanilla, deepening the flavor and giving the pudding that glossy, spoon-clinging finish. Straining it before it goes into ramekins guarantees a completely smooth, lump-free texture, and pressing plastic wrap directly onto the surface keeps it skin-free while it chills. A couple of hours in the fridge is all it takes to set into thick, creamy, chocolate-forward pudding that spoons up perfectly cold. Finish it with a dollop of dairy free whipped topping for extra indulgence, or enjoy it just as it is. This one’s an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert to keep on hand for a vegan table, no special equipment or fuss required.
