In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the soy milk and vanilla-flavored soy protein powder until smooth and free of lumps.
Sift in the cocoa powder to prevent clumps, and whisk again until well incorporated.
Add the maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir well so that the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Cover the bowl and let the mixture sit for about 3-5 minutes. Stir again to ensure the chia seeds don't settle at the bottom.
Transfer the mixture to individual serving bowls or ramekins. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight) to allow the chia seeds to thicken the pudding.
Before serving, give the pudding a final stir and top with optional garnishes like fresh fruit, shredded coconut, or chopped nuts if desired.
Enjoy your idiotically easy soy protein pudding!
