Instructions

Place the cocoa powder in a medium bowl, then whisk in 1/4 cup of the almond milk until the mixture is a smooth paste. This will prevent lumps.

Whisk in the remaining almond milk, maple syrup and vanilla extract until combined.

Add the chia seeds and stir until they're submerged in the liquid. Let stand 10 minutes until they thicken slightly, then stir once again.

Cover with plastic wrap and chill for a minimum of 3 hours or overnight until thick and creamy. Divide into jars and top with raspberries and chocolate chips, if desired. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Bloom Your Chia Seeds 💧
Let chia seeds sit in the almond milk for at least 15 minutes before mixing in other ingredients to achieve the perfect creamy pudding texture, as they absorb liquid and develop their signature gel coating.
Sift Your Cocoa Powder 🎯
Always sift unsweetened cocoa powder before mixing to eliminate lumps and ensure a smooth, silky chocolate flavor without any bitter, grainy texture in your pudding.
Chill Overnight for Depth 🌙
Prepare your pudding the night before—the flavors meld and intensify as it sits, creating a richer chocolate taste and thicker consistency than immediate consumption would provide.
Toast Your Chocolate Chips 🔆
Lightly toast mini dark chocolate chips in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes before adding to enhance their depth and create a more complex, sophisticated chocolate flavor.
Balance Sweetness with Salt Pinch 🧂
Add a tiny pinch of sea salt to your pudding mixture to amplify the cocoa's natural richness and make the maple syrup's sweetness more rounded and less one-dimensional.
