Microwave Chocolate Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• In a 4 cup microwave safe glass container combine dry stuff, then stir in the wet stuff.
• Cook on high for 2 minutes, then whisk the mixture.
• Cook on high one more minute at a time, whisking after each minute, until thickened.
• Once it's almost thick, you should go for 15- 30 seconds at a time.
• Allow to cool if you can wait!

Steps:

• In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together the sugar, cocoa and cornstarch. Whisk in milk a little at a time so the mixture does not have any dry lumps.
• Place in the microwave, and cook for 3 minutes on high. Stir, then cook at 1 minute intervals, stirring between cooking times for 2 to 4 minutes, or until shiny and thick. Stir in vanilla.
• Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming, and chill in the refrigerator. Serve cold.

Steps:

• Sift together the cocoa and cornstarch in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon water and stir until smooth.
• Combine the milk, sugar and chocolate chips in a 4-cup glass measuring cup. Microwave at 100 percent, until the chocolate melts completely, stopping to stir twice, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the cocoa-cornstarch mixture. Then whisk in egg and yolks. Microwave for 2 minutes, stir well and the microwave for another 2 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a food processor and add the butter and vanilla. Process until smooth. Pour into 4 individual cups and chill.

Steps:

• Spray the inside of a microwave-safe 2-quart 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
• Whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup of the brown sugar, 1/4 cup of the cocoa powder, baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Break up some of the larger brown sugar clumps with your fingers. Make a well in the center, add the buttermilk and oil and stir until everything is just combined. Scrape the batter into the prepared baking dish with a rubber spatula. Smooth the top.
• Put 1 cup water in a microwave-safe 2-cup or larger measuring cup. Microwave on high (at 100 percent power) until steaming hot, 2 minutes in an 1,100-watt oven or 3 minutes in a 700-watt oven. Add the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup cocoa powder, the vanilla and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and whisk to dissolve the sugar. Pour over the batter in the baking dish. Do not stir in.
• Microwave the cake on high (at 100 percent power) until the top is mostly set and dry to the touch, 8 minutes in an 1,100- or a 700-watt oven. (If the cake is slightly wet in the center, that's OK; it will continue cooking as it sits.) Let cool for at least 30 minutes.
• When you cut into the cake, you will notice a gooey chocolate pudding layer at the bottom; be sure to scoop some with each serving. Serve the cake warm or at room temperature with ice cream.

Steps:

• Lighter version:.
• In a large microwave-safe container, mix cornstarch, sugar, and cocoa. Use a whisk to blend mixture thoroughly. Add milk, a little at a time and whisk together until smooth.
• Put in microwave, cook on medium power for 5 minutes. Take out and whisk mixture smooth.
• Place pudding back in microwave, cook another 4 minutes, then take out and whisk as before.
• Stir in vanilla. Put in dessert dishes, if desired, and chill.
• Richer Dark Chocolate version:.
• After you take the pudding out of the microwave the second time in Step 4, add the grated chocolate and whisk the mixture. The chocolate should melt, but if it doesn't, cook for another minute or so on low heat.
• The chocolate seems to thicken the pudding further and you will probably need to add 1/4 to 1/2 cup of milk to thin it.
• Stir in vanilla. Put in dessert dishes, if desired, and chill. I think it tastes better slighly warm, however.

Steps:

• Place butter in a microwave proof dish, melt on high for 1 minute.
• Stir in sifted flour, cocoa, sugar ,milk and vanilla.
• Beat until smooth with a wooden spoon.
• Sprinkle with sifted cocoa & brown sugar.
• Pour over boiling water.
• Cook on high for 12 minutes (watch incase it boils over).
• Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
• Serve with ice cream or cream.
