Pudding Pudding and more Pudding!!!

Here are a couple of our current favorite pudding recipes. Erin has one food per pregnancy that she can't get enough of. This has been the pudding pregnancy. We like these recipes because they are almost as easy as a cook and serve box, but don't taste like chemicals. I hope you all enjoy!

Butterscotch

1 cup light brown sugar (dark brown sugar was a little too intense)
2 Tbs corn starch
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs beaten
2 cups milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup butter

In a 1-quart sauce pan mix all the dry ingredients. Failure to mix the corn starch with the sugar will result in lumpy pudding. All the beaten eggs and the milk to the pan and mix well. Cook on medium high heat until it starts to boil. Allow it to boil for 30 sec to 1 min longer just to kill the taste of the starch. Take off of heat and add vanilla and butter. Pour into serving dishes and refrigerate until cook.

Chocolate Pudding

1/2 cup light brown sugar
3 Tbs cocoa powder
3 Tbs corn starch
1/8 tsp salt
2 3/4 cup milk
2 Tbs butter
1 tsp vanilla extract

In a 1-quart sauce pan mix all the dry ingredients. Failure to mix the corn starch with the sugar will result in lumpy pudding. Add milk to the pan. Cook on medium high heat until it starts to boil. Allow it to boil for 30 sec to 1 min longer just to kill the taste of the starch. Take off of heat and add vanilla and butter. Pour into serving dishes and refrigerate until cook.

I hope you all enjoy.
