Whisk egg mixture into remaining hot milk mixture.
Cook, whisking constantly, 3 minutes or until mixture thickens.
Remove from heat, and add chopped chocolate, stirring until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Stir in vanilla.
Pour mixture into a glass bowl.
Place heavy-duty plastic wrap directly on warm mixture (to prevent a film from forming), and chill 2 hours or until pudding is completely cool.
