Ingredients
- 1 can (13.5 oz) Coconut milk (full-fat, canned)
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 0.25 cup Cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 ounces Dark chocolate (non-dairy, roughly chopped)
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the cocoa powder, cornstarch, and sugar until evenly mixed.
Step 2
Slowly pour in the coconut milk and almond milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon to prevent sticking.
Step 4
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and continue stirring as it thickens, about 7–8 minutes.
Step 5
Once thickened, add the chopped dark chocolate, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Stir until the chocolate is fully melted and the pudding is smooth.
Step 6
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly before pouring into serving dishes or ramekins.
Step 7
Cover each dish with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.
Step 8
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Step 9
Serve chilled, garnished with fresh fruit, coconut whipped cream, or a sprinkle of shaved chocolate, if desired.
