- 3 tablespoons cocoa powder

- 3 cups (710ml) whole milk
- 3 large egg yolks
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 6 ounces (170g) bittersweet chocolate; chopped (at least 60%)

Whisk sugar, flour, cocoa, and salt together in a medium saucepan. Whisk in milk and egg yolks until incorporated, making sure to scrape corners of saucepan.
Place saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly until mixture is thickened and bubbling over the entire surface (about 7 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the butter and chopped chocolate until fully melted. Whisk in the vanilla.
Pour into a bowl and press parchment paper or plastic wrap against the surface of the pudding to prevent a film from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
