Ingredients:  
2-3 egg yolks
2 tbsp cornstarch
2 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
Directions:
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks for about 60 seconds until light yellow and increased in volume, then whisk in the cornstarch and about 1/4 cup of the milk. Once mixture is smooth, set aside.

Measure sugar, cocoa, salt, and remaining milk into a medium-sized saucepan, and bring to a scald over medium-high heat (about 180-190ºF), before boiling. Dribble the hot cocoa into the egg cornstarch mixture very gradually while whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Pour mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium high heat, whisking constantly, until the pudding comes to a full boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and continue whisking for a couple minutes until the pudding is thickened. Remove the pudding from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Pour into four mugs or cups and let completely cool before refrigerating. If you don't want a skin to form on the top, cover with plastic wrap touching the top of the pudding.
