Time 1h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 cups whole milk
4 large egg yolks
6 1/2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, broken into pieces
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
16 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
Mixed gummy candies, such as worms, body parts, spiders (optional)
6 vanilla wafer sandwich cookies with chocolate inside, such as Pepperidge Farm Milano

Steps:

  • Stir together the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan. Add the milk and egg yolks and whisk together. Place over medium heat and cook, whisking continuously, as the mixture comes to a simmer and becomes thick, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chocolate, butter and vanilla until smooth and fully incorporated. Divide between the six 300-milliliter glass tumblers and chill for about an hour.
  • Top the pudding cups with some of the crushed sandwich cookies. Add the gummies, partially burying them in the crushed cookies, as if they are emerging from the "dirt".
  • Write R.I.P. on the vanilla sandwich cookies with an edible marker, then place them in the glasses so that they stand upright and resemble tombstones.
