Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup (240 ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • ¼ cup (30 g / 1.06 oz) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons (24 g / 0.85 oz) chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz) heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons (24 g / 0.85 oz) granular erythritolFor Garnish (Optional)
  • Freshly Whipped Cream
  • Shaved ultra-dark chocolate, 90% cacao or higher
  • For an ultra-smooth, non-gritty texture, let the blender run for a full 2-3 minutes. This helps break down the outer shell of the chia seeds.
  • Enhance the chocolate flavor with a pinch of sea salt or a ¼ teaspoon of vanilla or espresso extract before blending.
  • For a nut-free version, substitute the almond milk with an equal amount of unsweetened full-fat coconut milk or soy milk.
  • This pudding is perfect for meal prep. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Method
 

  1. Combine all —almond milk, cocoa powder, chia seeds, heavy cream, and erythritol—in a high-speed blender. 2.
  2. Blend on high for at least 2 minutes. The mixture should be completely smooth and will begin to visibly thicken. 3.
  3. Pour the pudding into a 2-cup serving dish or two individual ramekins. 4.
  4. Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours, or until the pudding is fully set and chilled. 5.
  5. Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings before serving, if desired.
