Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups unsweetened almond milk, 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 3 tbsp erythritol sweetener, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 1/8 tsp salt until smooth and well combined.
  2. Step 2: Stir in 1/4 cup chia seeds thoroughly so they are evenly distributed.
  3. Step 3: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, stirring once after 30 minutes to prevent clumping and ensure even thickening.
  4. Step 4: Before serving, stir the pudding again and divide into 4 serving cups. Garnish each with 1/2 tbsp slivered almonds for a crunchy contrast.
