[Sca-cooks] OOP: Chocolate pudding

[Heleen Greenwald]

I made myself a treat of chocolate pudding tonight. I always use soy  
milk as I can't have dairy. Here is the recipe (below:) Now, here is  
my question: Why didn't it firm up into pudding? It just stayed like  
soup.... and I measured and everything. It firms up all the other  
times..... It isn't humid here or anything.  I can't figure it  
out.... any ideas?
Thanks!

Combine 2 C soy milk, cocoa, Sweet & Low and the cornstarch in an old  
Hot & Sour soup container.

When the soy milk in the pot is beginning to bubble, add the  
chocolate mixture.
