Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Whisk milk, cooled coffee, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth with no cocoa lumps.
- Stir in chia seeds evenly. Rest for 5 minutes, then stir again to improve texture and prevent clumping.
- Divide into jars, cover, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours until thick, creamy, and spoonable.
- Stir gently before serving. Add a splash of milk for a softer consistency, then finish with desired toppings.
Notes
For a softer pudding, stir in extra milk before serving. For a thicker texture, add additional chia seeds. Freeze individual portions for up to one month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Stir gently before serving for easy assembly. Customize with cinnamon, espresso powder, peppermint extract, or chopped nuts. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to five days.
