In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cornstarch, cocoa powder, instant espresso powder, and salt until evenly combined. Gradually whisk in the milk in a thin stream, then whisk in the maple syrup until smooth with no dry lumps remaining.

Set the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble at the edges, about 8–10 minutes. Once the first large bubbles break the surface, cook for 1 minute more, whisking steadily, until the pudding is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and a finger drawn through leaves a clean line.
