Mix the pudding powder with 6 tbsp. sugar and stir with 100 ml milk until smooth. Boil 300 ml milk in a pot. Stir the pudding powder into the boiling milk, bring to the boil and simmer for about 1 minute.

Take it off the stove. Stir in the mascarpone. Pour into a bowl, cover directly on the surface with foil and allow to cool.
