ALMOND MILK CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• Whisk the sugar, cornstarch, cocoa and salt in a medium (2 quart) nonstick saucepan.
• Slowly whisk in the almond milk. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer, whisking occasionally, until mixture thickens. It usually takes about 3 minutes, but I continue whisking for a total of 4.
• Set a sieve over a bowl and drain pudding into the bowl to ensure that there aren't any lumps. Stir in the extracts and the butter. Pour into 2 serving bowls. Cover exposed area with a small sheet of waxed paper or parchment or plastic wrap, then cool slightly and chill until cold.
• Serve with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

Steps:

• Have 8 ramekins (at least 4 ounces in size), goblets or glasses ready to receive the pudding.
• Whisk together the cocoa, sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium-sized saucepan. Slowly whisk in about 1 cup of the almond milk until smooth, then whisk in remaining almond milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, (might take about 5 minutes), and simmer for 1 minute, whisking frequently until thickened. Add chocolate and whisk frequently for about 1 minute more until chocolate melts and the pudding is thick and smooth. The pudding should be thick enough to leave whisk marks in the surface. Remove from heat, whisk in vanilla, then immediately pour into waiting dishes or goblets.
