Decadent chocolate chia pudding

Decadent chocolate chia pudding is a nutritious and delicious dessert or snack that combines the rich taste of chocolate with the health benefits of chia seeds. This easy-to-make recipe is perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while keeping things wholesome and healthy. With simple ingredients like almond milk, chia seeds, cocoa powder, dates, and vanilla extract, you can create a creamy and indulgent treat that you can enjoy anytime.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup almond milk
180g
2 tbsp chia seeds
24g
2 tbsp dry cocoa powder
11g
4 dates
100g
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1.05g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dates:
- If your dates are not soft, soak them in warm water for about 10 minutes to make them easier to blend. After soaking, drain and pit the dates.
2. Blend the Ingredients:
- In a blender, combine the almond milk, dates, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Blend on high until the dates are completely incorporated and the mixture is smooth. This might take 1-2 minutes depending on the strength of your blender.
3. Combine with Chia Seeds:
- Pour the blended mixture into a medium-sized bowl. Add the chia seeds and stir well to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the liquid.
4. Rest and Stir:
- Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes and then stir again to prevent the chia seeds from clumping together.
5. Refrigerate:
- Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours. For best results, let it sit overnight. The chia seeds will absorb the liquid and thicken to form a pudding-like consistency.
6. Serve:
- Once the pudding has set, give it a good stir and scoop it into serving dishes. You can enjoy the pudding as is or top it with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, coconut flakes, nuts, or a dollop of whipped cream.
7. Enjoy:
- Indulge in your decadent and healthy chocolate chia pudding!

Tips:

- For a smoother texture, blend all the ingredients together before adding the chia seeds.

- Allow the pudding to chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best consistency.

- Adjust the sweetness by adding more dates or a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup if desired.

- Feel free to use any plant-based milk alternative if you prefer something other than almond milk.

- Garnish with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, coconut flakes, or chopped nuts for added flavor and texture.

With this simple and delicious recipe, you can easily whip up a batch of decadent chocolate chia pudding that is both satisfying and nutritious. Whether you enjoy it as a dessert, snack, or even breakfast, this pudding is sure to impress with its rich chocolate flavor and creamy texture. Plus, it's a great way to incorporate chia seeds into your diet for added health benefits.
