Healthy Chocolate Chia Chocolate Pudding

By

I make this pudding when I want something indulgent tasting, but don’t feel like eating a ton of sugar. It satisfies and energizes me while letting me get on with my day. I love mixing carob powder and cocoa powder for a more complex chocolate flavour. The carob powder also adds a natural sweetness that I love. This is truly a guilt free indulgence.

Ingredients

  • 1 & 1/4 cup to 1 & 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, as needed.

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients (starting with 1 & 1/4 cup almond milk) until the clumps are gone.

Step 2

Place in fridge for 1-2 hours, until thick or overnight. Stir well, add more milk if desired to achieve the thickness you desire, and serve chilled.
