Author Notes
Who doesn't love the milk left behind after a bowl of cereal? I've never had the original from Momofuku Milk Bar because it doesn't exist in Singapore, but the thought of it was enough to make me try and recreate it at home. And just because I'm in love with all things pudding, I made it into a rich, creamy pudding as well.
While I like my pudding warm, this is also perfect served cold. Pudding skin is also an odd liking of mine, but if you don't like pudding skin, just press a plastic wrap onto the pudding before you chill it to prevent the skin from forming.

Drizzle about 1/2 cup of the boiled cereal milk while whisking quickly to incorporate and prevent lumps from forming.

I like my pudding warm, but if I do have it cold, I like it with the skin that forms when you chill it. But if you don't like pudding skin, just press a plastic film onto the pudding before you chill it to prevent the skin from forming.
