Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 scoops Chocolate-flavored protein powder
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate shavings or cacao nibs
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened almond milk and chocolate-flavored protein powder. Whisk together until the powder is completely dissolved and there are no lumps.
Add the cocoa powder, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to fully incorporate all ingredients.
Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, then give it another thorough stir to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed. This will help prevent clumping.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and place it in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 2 hours, or until the pudding reaches your desired thickness. For best results, let it sit overnight.
Before serving, stir the pudding once more to achieve a consistent texture.
Spoon the pudding into serving bowls, and garnish with dark chocolate shavings or cacao nibs for an extra chocolatey touch.
Serve cold and enjoy your nutritious high-protein chocolate treat!
