Ingredients

1 whole Pie Crust, Baked And Cooled (or Can Use Oreo Or Graham Cracker Crust)
1-1/2 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon Salt
3 cups Whole Milk
4 whole Egg Yolks
6-1/2 ounces, weight Bittersweet Chocolate, Chopped Finely
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
2 Tablespoons Butter
Whipped Cream, For Serving

Directions

1

Combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir or whisk together.
2

Pour in milk and egg yolks, and whisk together.
3

Stir over medium heat until the mixture just barely comes to a boil, about 6-8 minutes (maybe less, maybe more; just watch it!) The second it starts to bubble and thicken remove it from the heat. Add the chocolate, vanilla, and butter, and stir until everything is beautifully combined.
4

Pour the pudding into the pie crust (if there is extra, spoon it into small dishes) and place in the fridge to chill for 4 hours uncovered.
5

Cut into slices and serve with whipped cream!
