In a medium saucepan, combine 1.5 cups of almond milk, coconut cream, and coconut sugar. Place over medium heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
In a small bowl, create a slurry by mixing the remaining 0.5 cup of almond milk with the cornstarch until smooth and no lumps remain.
Add the cocoa powder, cornstarch slurry, and a pinch of salt to the saucepan, whisking continually to avoid any clumping.
Continue stirring for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency. Remove from heat, add vanilla extract, and mix thoroughly.
Pour the mixture into serving bowls or glasses and allow them to cool for a few minutes before topping each with the dark chocolate chips and slivers of almond.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 30 minutes to set, or enjoy slightly warm if preferred.
Serve garnished with additional almond slices or a dusting of cocoa powder, if desired.
