- Serves: 4; 1/2 cup pudding plus scant 1/4 cup banana per serving
Description
Dark cocoa powder intensifies the flavor of this chocolate pudding, which tops slices of fresh banana. Crunchy pecans provide a nice texture contrast to the creaminess of the homemade pudding.
Ingredients
2 cups fat-free milk
1/4 cup egg substitute
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons unsweetened dark cocoa powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
