It's easy to make your own homemade pudding mixes. They cost much less than the commercially made mixes. We freeze this to make homemade fudge pops!

7/8 C cornstarch, (1 C minus 2 T)
1 1/2 C sugar
3/4 C cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt, rounded

Combine all the dry ingredients and store in an airtight container. The mix fits in a quart jar.
