Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 4h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings (about 6 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 1/2 cups whole milk
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
Kosher salt
5 large egg yolks, beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1 cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips, plus more for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat 4 cups of the milk in a large saucepan over medium heat until steaming.
  • Whisk the sugar, cornstarch and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup milk.
  • Whisk half of the hot milk into the egg mixture until smooth, then gradually whisk the egg-milk mixture into the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture boils. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until it has thickened to a puddinglike consistency, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Cool slightly, stirring a few times to prevent a skin from forming. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding and refrigerate until completely cooled and thickened, about 4 hours.
  • Before serving, whisk the pudding vigorously until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the marshmallows, walnuts and chocolate chips. Spoon the pudding into six to eight individual cups and top with more chocolate chips.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of 60% or higher is a good choice.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the pudding will be thinner and less rich.
  • For a vegan version of this recipe, use almond milk or coconut milk instead of dairy milk and vegan chocolate.
  • To make the pudding cups ahead of time, assemble them and then refrigerate for up to 2 days. When you're ready to serve, top with whipped cream and chopped nuts.
  • For a fun variation, try adding a layer of crushed Oreos or chopped peanut butter cups to the bottom of the pudding cups.

Conclusion:

Rocky Road Pudding Cups are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with a creamy chocolate pudding base, topped with whipped cream, chopped nuts, and marshmallows. These pudding cups are sure to be a hit with people of all ages.
