- 3 egg yolks
- 30 grams flour
- 750 milliliters milk

Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, cocoa powder, flour, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually stir in milk.
Step 2
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thickened and bubbly. Continue cooking and stirring for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat.

Gradually stir about 1 cup of the hot mixture into the beaten egg yolks, then return the egg mixture to the saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil and cook and stir for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla extract.
Step 4
