Chocolate Almond Tapioca Pudding Slow Cooker Recipes

Steps:

• Place tapioca in a medium mixing bowl along with the water, cover, and let stand overnight.
• Drain water from tapioca. Place the tapioca into a slow cooker along with the milk, heavy cream, and salt. Cook on high for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and sugar. Temper small amounts of the tapioca into the egg mixture until you have added at least 1 cup. Then add this back into the remaining tapioca in the slow cooker. Add the lemon zest and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 15 minutes, stirring at least once. Transfer the pudding to a bowl and cover the surface with plastic wrap. Allow to cool at room temperature for 1 hour and then place in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled.

Steps:

• Use a 4 qt slow cooker. Combine the milk, sugar and tapioca in the insert. Stir well to mix.
• Cover and cook on High for two to three hours. It will still be soupy at this point.
• In a medium or large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond extract, and cocoa powder.
• Remove 1/2 cup of the hot tapioca/milk mix from the crockpot, and stir into the eggs, whisking all the time. A standard ladle is 1/2 cup. Add another 1/2 cup of the hot mix, whisk thoroughly, and then another 1/2 cup. This tempers the eggs, so that they don't turn into scrambled eggs.
• Pour the egg mixture into the slow cooker and stir very thoroughly to combine.
• Cover and cook on High for 30 minutes to one hour, or until the tapioca has begun to swell and thicken.
• Turn off the slow cooker, remove the lid and let this stand an hour to thicken further. Remove to a large bowl, cover with plastic pushing the plastic against the tapioca (to prevent a skin from forming), and chill.
• Note1: I used seed tapioca, about the size of sesame seeds. I will try this using a couple of tablespoons less, to get a slightly looser consistency, although it was just fine the way it was.
• Note2: I used 2% milk, as that was what I had. I also used only 3/4 cup sugar - the original recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups, and that would have been much too sweet for me. I might double the amount of cocoa powder next time.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, stir together the sugar, cocoa and cornstarch. Gradually whisk in milk and egg. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil over medium heat, and cook until thickened. Remove from heat, and quickly stir in the vanilla and almond extracts. Garnish as desired, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Combine sugar, tapioca, and salt in a saucepan; stir in milk and egg.
• Let stand 5 minutes.
• Add chopped chocolate squares and instant coffee.
• Cook, stirring over medium heat, until mixture comes to a full boil and chocolate is blended, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
• Cool for 20 minutes; stir and chill.
• Serve with whipped topping if desired.

Steps:

• Stir together the milk, sugar, tapioca, and eggs in a slow cooker. Cover, and cook on Medium for 3 hours, or on Low for 6 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Milk the milk, tapioca, egg, and sugar together in a saucepan until the sugar has dissolved; allow to stand for 5 minutes.
• Whisk in the chocolate and cocoa powder.
• Place over medium heat, bring to a boil, whisking constantly, and let boil for 2 minutes.
• Remove from heat and whisk in the vanilla extract. Allow to cool for 20 minutes. Serve warm or chilled.

Steps:

• Stir milk, sugar, tapioca, and eggs together in a slow cooker crock.
• Cook on Low, stirring once per hour, for 6 hours. Stir vanilla into the pudding.

Steps:

• Preheat slow cooker for 20 minutes on high.
• Grease the slow cooker bowl (would recommend if using butter to put on wax paper or baking/parchment paper to do).
• In a separate bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients mixing or whisking well together.
• Sift brown sugar and extra cocoa powder over mixture.
• Using a spoon, gently and evenly pour the boiling water over the mixture.
• Cook on HIGH for 2 1/2 hours, or until centre is firm (I think cooking time could vary depending on the size of your crock pot/slow cooker - mine is a 6L oval shaped cooker and this is the time they recommend).
• Serve with sifted icing sugar and ice cream or cream.
