Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups milk of choice OR canned coconut milk
heaping 1/8 tsp salt
1/4 cup dutch cocoa powder
1/3 cup sweetener ((sugar, pure maple syrup, erythritol, or honey))
1/2 cup milk of choice + 3 tbsp cornstarch
optional 3 oz chocolate chips or broken-up bar
3/4 tsp pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Healthy Chocolate Pudding Recipe: Heat the 2 cups milk of choice in a saucepan with the salt, cocoa powder, and sweetener. Meanwhile, whisk the cornstarch and 1/2 cup milk in a small bowl until dissolved. When the 2 cups milk are warm, add the cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil. Once boiling, stir constantly for 2 minutes. Lower to a simmer for an additional minute, then turn off the heat. Once the heat is off, stir in the vanilla and broken-up chocolate pieces until the chocolate melts. Transfer the pudding to the refrigerator to thicken. It gets thicker the longer it sits and will be ready to consume after a few hours or overnight. *Note: I've not tried arrowroot and have only tried this recipe with Dutch cocoa powder so can't vouch for the taste if regular unsweetened cocoa powder is used in its place. But you are always free to experiment!View Nutrition Facts
