Here is a recipe for chocolate pudding. If you replace whole milk with skim milk fat will be reduced. Use egg whites to reduce cholesterol and use lower-fat cocoa powder to replace chocolate.
It only takes 10 minutes to prepare and 10 minutes to cook.
Serves 4
2 egg whites
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 1/4 cups skim milk, divided
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Fresh strawberries, mint leaves, and unsweetened cocoa powder for garnish.
1-In a small bowl, lightly beat egg whites and set aside. In a large bowl, combine 2/3 cup of cocoa and cornstarch. Whisk 3/4 cup of milk into cocoa mixture until completely smooth.
2-In a large heavy saucepan, combine remaining milk, sugar, and salt. Mix well. Bring to a boil over high heat, whisking constantly. Remove pan from heat.
3-Whisk cocoa mixture into hot milk mixture. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil for 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Remove pan from heat.
