Cooking Instructions:
- Step 1: Crush the Oreos. Start by placing the 14 Oreo cookies in a ziplock bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin. Alternatively, you can use a food processor for a quicker option. Set aside about 2 tablespoons of crumbs for garnish later.
- Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, cornstarch, and sugar. Whisk them together until they are well blended.
- Step 3: Add the Milk. Pour in the 2 cups of whole milk into the dry mixture gradually, whisking continuously to avoid any lumps. Make sure the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Step 4: Cook the Mixture. Transfer the mixture to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the pudding starts to thicken and bubble. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Step 5: Incorporate the Oreos. Once the pudding has thickened, remove it from the heat and stir in the crushed Oreos and vanilla extract. Mix well until all the Oreos are evenly distributed throughout the pudding.
- Step 6: Chill and Serve. Pour the pudding into serving cups or bowls. Allow it to cool slightly at room temperature, then place it in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to chill. Serve topped with whipped cream, reserved Oreo crumbs, and an extra Oreo cookie on the side for that perfect finishing touch.
Notes
- For a spring twist, add fresh berries on top of the pudding.
- In summer, serve the pudding in ice cream cones for a fun dessert.
- Leftover pudding can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
