deb-in-Mich I made the chocolate malted pudding you posted. It tasted good

but I wonder if she made a mistake when she adapted/transcribed it. Two tablespoons of cornstarch was not enough thickening for two cups of milk. Most of my pudding recipes would have that amount but also have a couple of egg yolks tempered and added in at the end. I should have listened to my gut on this one because it came out soupy-I thought it might thicken more on cooling but it didn't. Great idea though to just sub 1/2 cup of malted milk powder for part of your sugar.http://www.divaentertains.com/blog/2010/05/chocolate-malted-pudding/

 
Hi Melissa. I just checked the origial recipe

from Taste of Home and it did call for 2 Tbsp. of cornstarch. It did work beautifully when I made it - I'm so sorry that it didn't work out for you.

Neither of the two recipes I use to make pudding call for eggs (although I have made delicious ones that have!). I just checked the other chocolate pudding recipe I posted and it called for 1 Tbsp. and 1 tsp. of cornstarch for 1 cup of milk.

I'm sure your gut feel will create a delicious malted pudding!
