Chocolate Pudding Cake Ingredients: Cooking spray (for greasing) 4 cups whole milk 3/4 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup heavy cream 1/2 cup dark cocoa powder 6 tbsp cornstarch 1/4 tsp kosher salt 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips Directions: Prepare the pan: Grease an 8"x4" loaf pan with cooking spray. Line it with a large piece of parchment, folding the sides to fit snugly. Use clips to hold the parchment in place, then grease the parchment with cooking spray. Whisk the mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, sugar, heavy cream, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until everything is well combined. Simmer the mixture: Strain the milk mixture into a medium saucepan. Place it over medium heat and bring it to a simmer, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. Simmer for 2 minutes. Melt the chocolate: Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Pour and chill: Remove the saucepan from heat. Pour the chocolate mixture through a fine mesh sieve into the prepared loaf pan. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set. Unmold the cake: Carefully unmold the pudding cake onto a plate. Peel off the parchment and dust the top with extra cocoa powder for a finished look. Slice and serve: To slice, heat a knife by dipping it into boiling water, wiping it clean, and then slicing the cake. Alternatively, use a kitchen torch to warm the knife before slicing. Serve the pudding cake cold.
