- Add vanilla extract & whisk
- Continue whisking eggs over low heat. Make sure you whisk along the edges of the pot
- Once the mixture begins to bubble, let bubble for 30-60secs. This will determine how thick your pudding gets.
- Taking pudding off of the stove, and add chocolate, espresso, and pinch of cinnamon.
