Chocolate Chia Pudding

This recipe actually debuted at our annual Pumpkin Carving Party in October, as the vegan pudding option for some super festive “dirt cups.” Since then I’ve been making it whenever the need for chocolate pudding arises, which is more often than you might think. It tastes remarkably similar (in a good way) to the jello pudding cups I had infrequently growing up.

At Edith’s brilliant suggestion, I often top this chocolatey goodness with some tart frozen raspberries. Why frozen? Because that’s what we have and I’m not trying to spend $7 for 2oz of fresh raspberries in February. Feel me? I knew you would.
