Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon dark chocolate chips or chunks

Optional toppings:

  • nuts, seeds, nut butter
  • granola
  • coconut flakes
  • cacao nibs

Instructions

  • In a container or bowl, whisk together cocoa powder (1 Tbsp), vanilla extract (1 tsp), maple syrup (1 Tbsp), and milk (1 cup) until smooth.
  • Stir in the chia seeds (1/4 cup) and mix well.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours) to allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and create a pudding-like consistency.
  • In the morning, stir again and top with dark chocolate chunks and your favourite toppings. Enjoy!
