Method
 

  1. Whisk milk, cooled coffee, cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt until smooth and glossy.
  2. Stir in chia seeds evenly. Let the mixture stand for 5 minutes, then stir again to eliminate clumps.
  3. Pour into jars, cover securely, and refrigerate overnight until the pudding becomes thick, creamy, and spoonable.
  4. Stir before serving. Add a splash of milk for a softer texture, then top as desired and enjoy.

Notes

For a softer pudding, stir in additional milk before serving. For a thicker texture, add another teaspoon of chia seeds. Freeze sealed portions for up to one month and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Stir gently before serving for smooth assembly. Customize flavor with cinnamon, espresso powder, peppermint extract, or almond extract. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to five days.
