I don’t know if this is actually the recipe that my Mom-mom used but it is close. If you don’t like the ‘skin’ that cooked pudding has then simply place a piece of plastic wrap over the warm pudding so that the wrap touches the top of the pudding. When cool you remove the wrap and the ‘skin’.

INGREDIENTS:
- 2/3 c. sugar
- 1/4 c. cocoa powder
- 4 T. cornstarch
- 1/4 t. salt
- 2-1/4 cups milk
- 2 T. butter or margarine
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
DIRECTIONS:
In a medium size saucepan whisk together the first four ingredients. Slowly stir in the milk.
Cook this mixture over medium heat until it boils. Stir constantly and boil for about 1 minute.
Remove your pan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla.
Pour into a serving bowl and chill for about 2-3 hours.
For Pie:
I usually only use 2 cups of milk and then pour this into a baked pie shell or a graham cracker crust. Chill for 2-3 hours. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
