Ingredients
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup chia seeds whole or ground
- 1 ½ cups unsweetened cashew milk or other dairy-free milk
- ¼ cup maple syrup honey or agave
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Set out a medium sized mixing bowl. Add the cocoa powder and chia seeds. Whisk well to break up all the cocoa powder clumps.
- In a separate measuring pitcher, mix the cashew milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Add in a pinch of salt if you like. Whisk well.
- Pour the milk mixture into the cocoa mixture, whisking consistently, until the pudding is smooth. Allow the mixture to rest in the fridge for 15-20 minutes, to allow the chia seeds to release their thickening properties.
- Then whisk well again. Either cover and chill in the mixing bowl, or pour the pudding into small servings cups and chill. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours to fully thicken.
