Method
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
- Gradually add the milk to the dry ingredients while continuously whisking to prevent lumps from forming.
- Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened (about 8-10 minutes).
- Once the pudding has thickened, remove from heat and stir in the chopped chocolate, butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
- Pour the pudding into serving dishes and let it cool to room temperature. Then, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set.
- Meanwhile, prepare the sesame crunch by toasting the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden (about 3-4 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- In a small bowl, combine the toasted sesame seeds with honey and a pinch of sea salt. Let it cool completely, then break into crunchy pieces.
- Serve the chocolate pudding garnished with the sesame crunch on top.

Notes
Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate to find your perfect flavor profile!
For a dairy-free option, you can substitute whole milk with almond or coconut milk, and use dairy-free chocolate.
If you're looking to save time, consider making the pudding a day in advance; it keeps well in the fridge.
When serving, don’t hesitate to add fresh fruit or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat!
