Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sweetener of choice
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 Tbsp. cornstarch ensure gluten-free
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a medium saucepan, whisk together the almond milk, granulated sweetener, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt until smooth and well combined.
  • Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture starts to thicken and just begins to bubble, about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to let it boil vigorously to prevent the pudding from becoming lumpy. Once the mixture has thickened to the consistency of a soft pudding, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Divide the pudding into serving dishes or a large bowl. To prevent a skin from forming on top, place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until set. Before serving, you can whisk the pudding again for a smoother texture, if desired.

Tip:

  • For a creamier pudding, consider blending the chilled pudding in a blender until smooth and creamy. This can help achieve a silky texture. Garnish with a light sprinkle of sea salt, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped coconut cream for added flavor and presentation.
