In a bowl whisk together ½ cup milk, cocoa powder and cornstarch untill there are no large lumps.
Next, in a saucepan set over medium heat, put the remaining 1 cup of milk and sugar and bring it to a boil.
pour the milk & cornstarch slurry into the saucepan. I like to use a sieve so no lumps enter the saucepan.
Cook this mixture on medium heat for a couple of minutes and whisk constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
When the mixture begins to thicken, take the pan off the heat and immediately pour the mixture into 2 ramekins or small glasses.
Keep the pudding in the fridge for 4 to 5 hours, or until it is completely set.
Demould it carefully on a plate and dust some cocoa powder on top or add some shaved chocolate, whipped cream and enjoy
