DUTCH CHOCOLATE PUDDING
Steps:
- In a heavy medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt. Whisk in about half of the milk to make a smooth paste and stir in the rest. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and begins to thicken, about 6 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, for 1 minute longer, until smooth and very thick. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chocolate, butter and vanilla, stirring until they are both melted. Pour the pudding into 4 dessert bowls or one larger serving dish. Place a sheet of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming on top and refrigerate until firm. (This will take about 30 minutes for individual dishes, longer for the large bowl.) Serve plain or topped with the optional whipped cream.

Tips:
- Use high-quality cocoa powder. The cocoa powder is the main flavoring agent in Dutch chocolate butter, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a cocoa powder that is dark and has a rich, chocolatey flavor.
- Don't overcook the butter. Dutch chocolate butter is best when it is slightly soft and spreadable. If you overcook it, it will become hard and crumbly.
- Be patient. Dutch chocolate butter takes time to make. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with a subpar product.
- Store the butter in a cool, dark place. Dutch chocolate butter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
Conclusion:
Dutch chocolate butter is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes. It's perfect for spreading on toast or crackers, using as a filling for cakes and pastries, or even using as a frosting.
