Chocolate Pudding
Ingredients:
- 1½ Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 Tbsp white sugar
- 1 cup dry milk
- 1 Tbsp butter powder
At home:
Pack all the dry ingredients into a snack size zip top bag.
In camp:
Add the dry ingredients to your pot, slowly whisk in ¾ cup cool water till the dry items are fully blended. Bring to a gentle simmer over a low flame, whisking often. For a thicker pudding make sure you let it come to a bubble.
Eat warm or let sit and cool down, for a quicker cooling stash the pot in a snow patch or a cold creek.
Notes:
Make it mocha by adding in ½ to 1 tsp freeze dried instant coffee or espresso. This is a sweet pudding so you may want to cut the sugar by 1 Tablespoon if you don’t have a sweet tooth. Find butter powder online.
