2. Add 2 cups of milk and sugar (1/4 – 1/2 cup) to a saucepan and keep on stirring until it is about to boil. Bring down the heat to low. Cook for a minute. Add corn starch and cocoa powder paste and stir continuously for 1 – 2 minutes until it thickens a bit. Switch off the flame. Add 1 – 2 pinches of salt, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 tsp butter. Let stand for 1 minute. Stir until smooth. Set aside to cool down completely.
