Ingredients
  

For the Pudding Base
  • 8 oz White Chocolate Use high-quality chocolate or chips for the richest flavor.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream For a lighter alternative, consider whipped coconut cream.
  • 1 cup Milk Whole milk is best; non-dairy can be substituted.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla enhances flavor; almond extract is an alternative.
  • 3 Eggs Essential for structure; flax eggs may change texture.
For the Garnish (optional)
  • 1 cup Whipped Cream Provides a delightful contrast to the pudding.
  • Chocolate Shavings Adds extra chocolate kick and visual appeal.

Equipment

  • heatproof bowl
  • Saucepan
  • Whisk
  • Medium saucepan

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by finely chopping the high-quality white chocolate and placing it in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. In a medium saucepan, gently heat the heavy cream and milk over low heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring continuously. Add sugar and whisk until dissolved.
  3. Pour the melted white chocolate into the warm milk and cream mixture, whisking until fully combined for a smooth consistency.
  4. Whisk the eggs in a separate bowl until pale; slowly add a small amount of the warm chocolate mixture to temper them. Mix well, then pour back into the saucepan.
  5. Cook the combined mixture over low heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring until thickened, avoiding boiling.
  6. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract, pour into serving cups, cover, and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
  7. After chilling, garnish with whipped cream and chocolate shavings before serving.
