Will chocolate pudding made with skim milk get thick?

Yes, chocolate pudding made with skim milk can still thicken, though it may not be as rich and creamy as pudding made with whole milk or cream. The thickening primarily comes from the cornstarch or other thickeners used in the recipe, which can still work effectively with skim milk. However, the final texture may be slightly less luxurious, so adjustments in cooking time or thickening agents might be necessary to achieve the desired consistency.
