Ingredients
- 200 gm tea biscuits
- 500 ml whole milk
- 6 tbsp. sugar
- pinch of salt
- 1 tsp. vanilla essence
- 2 tsp. instant coffee mixed in 1/2 cup warm water
- 3 tbsp. corn flour/cornstarch
- 3 tbsp. cocoa powder
Instructions
- First, prepare the coffee mixture. Let it cool to room temperature. Now remove half the biscuits from the packet (100gm) and proceed to dip each one on both sides then lay them out in a dish. Set aside.Start preparing the pudding. Mix the corn flour and cocoa powder in a small bowl, add a few tbsp. of milk and stir together until you have a smooth paste without any lumps. If you add too much liquid at once, you won't be able to mix these well so go slow and add only enough milk to get the mixture into a paste.Pour the rest of the milk into a pot and add the sugar n salt. Bring to the boil then lower the heat and add the vanilla. Then add the cocoa+cornflour paste and keep stirring. The pudding will start to thicken very quickly. Once it is of the consistency of custard…not too thin but not too thick, turn the heat off and take the pot off the stove.Pour half the hot pudding onto the layered biscuits. You can sprinkle some nuts over this if you want. Now continue dipping the remaining half packet of the biscuits in the coffee as you did before and make another layer over the pudding. Finally pour the remaining pudding over the soaked biscuits and garnish with some nuts of your choice.Let the biscuit pudding come to room temperature then cover and refrigerate until well-chilled. You can have it as it is, or serve with whipped cream or ice cream.Enjoy! 🙂
Notes
If you want a coffee-free version, dip the biscuits in some milk instead of coffee and proceed with the remainder of the recipe as directed.

im recently married n very bad n cookin ur ds website hav helped me a loot thnk u very much n ua recepies r really superb
Assalaamu Alaykum, i tried this Biscuit Pudding, my kids loved this recipe. I am gonna make it again but i will put condensed milk instead of suger guess that will taste more good. will let u know after trying.
Jazak’Allaah Khair
Hi Shayista, please re-post your previous comment dear, it may not have registered. 🙂
assalamualaikum fauzia,
i tried this recipe twice, and am encountering a problem.after mixing the cocoa-cornflour mixture very well, when i add it to the milk, there are lumps that don’t dissolve even after stirring for long……. please help
jazakillahkhair.
W/Salaam, when you mix the cocoa-cornflour, do you add a few tbsp. of milk like I’ve directed in the recipe? The cocoa-cornflour mixture has to be a loose ‘paste’ for it to dissolve into the liquid. Adding any powder directly to liquid inevitably will result in lumps. If you’re doing this and you still have lumps, then I think you should try a different brand of cornflour for better results.
jazakillahkhair, will try n let u knw in shaa Allah…..
AOA,
I had the same issue,when I added the choclate corn flour paste in the milk I still had lumps that did not dissolve. I tried it twice, once while on the stove, once off the stove and still got lumps..But I have to add that the taste was awesome and everyone loved it,so thank you very very much!!
try making the corn flour and cocoa mixture thinner..it shudnt be a very thick mixture but rather a very thin and liquid like mix…so when u add it to the milk later..it wont from lumps..i had the same problem the first tym i made it but later i made it into a very thin paste and it worked..gud luck! 🙂
Salaam.
You use whole milk in your recipe…would semi skimmed milk work just as well?
Ramadan Mubarak!
PS. your recipes are going to help me soo much this Ramadan so jazakhallah in advance!
W/Salaam, yes you can use semi-skimmed milk. And thank you! Ramadhan Mubarak to you too.
I love it ! 😀

Hi and thanks. Cornflour is also known as cornstarch, you need it for thickening of the pudding.
Can i use nutella instead of cocoa powder???? Plz help thanks in advance
Have never tried that, not sure how the results would be.
Aasalamualiekum Fauzia

Chocolate powder of any sort.
Chocolate powder of any sort. I would not recommend nutella in place of cocoa powder, one is powder the other is paste, two different things. Best to try the recipe as is first and then make adjustments the next time. 🙂
hi Fauzia, i tried this
hi Fauzia, i tried this recipe on Eid and its taste went too good, however it didn’t thicken to the level i expected. Secondly can u tell me what this “whole milk” is? i mean is it normal milk or packaged one??
ThankYou
You can add more cornflour to
You can add more cornflour to thicken it next time. Whole milk means full fat milk, it gives thicker results.

AOA hru?? what if i use
AOA hru?? what if i use kishta cream instead of cornflour??
W/Salaam am well thanks.
W/Salaam am well thanks. Kishta will not have the same thickening effect as cornflour. Best to use cornflour or even custard powder.
Tried this recipe the other
Tried this recipe the other day… Ended up consuming the whole thing within 24 hours, lol! I didn’t have enough cornflour at the time – only 1-2tbsp – but still it turned out fine.
Some of the coffee-dipped biscuits tasted “karwa” – I guess ’cause I didn’t coat them properly with enough chocolate pudding.
But all in all, it was great!
Jazaakillaah khayr. May Allaah reward you with good 🙂

A favourite dessert on my mind ever since i was a young girl… easy peasy dessert and yummilicious too.

Made it exactly according to recipe and turned out super yummy. Kids ate the pudding straight from the pan it was sooo good! I dipped tea biscuits in milk which gave a perfect soft texture in the layers. Super duper like! Will add cherries, white chocolates shavings and nuts to serve for guests on Eid.

Thank you. Tried it yesterday
Thank you. Tried it yesterday but didn’t come out as expected; when the cocoa mixture was added to the heating milk it kept separating into clumps even though the paste was smooth and I kept mixing. I think i need to make the paste thinner. Inshallah, I will try again.
Tried this today. Jazaakillah
