In a medium saucepan, combine the unsweetened soy milk and cornstarch. Whisk until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and no lumps remain.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring the mixture does not stick to the bottom.
As the mixture begins to warm, add the pure maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Continue stirring to evenly combine the ingredients.
Cook the mixture for about 8-10 minutes, or until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency. Remove the saucepan from heat.
While the pudding is still hot, stir in the chopped dark chocolate until melted and fully incorporated.
Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or ramekins. Let it cool at room temperature for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 1-2 hours, or until set.
Before serving, garnish each serving with a scattering of toasted nuts and fresh berries for added texture and Mediterranean-inspired flavor.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
