Crush your sugar craving with this luscious, dark chocolate pudding recipe.
This healthy pudding is made with only six wholesome ingredients, and is as easy as melting, mixing, and setting in the refrigerator!
Raw cacao powder and solid dark chocolate combine for double chocolatey goodness filled with antioxidants. To get their full health benefits, use dark chocolate made of at least 80 percent cacao.
Coconut oil gives this pudding its silky-smooth texture and helps the chocolate melt evenly, while coconut yogurt is used to bind everything together.
It makes this pudding incredibly creamy and it adds a healthy dose of probiotics to make your gut happy. For best results, make your own coconut yogurt or look for one without added sugar or artificial ingredients.
Finally, coconut sugar and vanilla marry everything together with a touch of sweetness!
This recipe takes less than 20 minutes to make from prep to finish. All you have to do is melt the coconut oil with the chocolate and cacao. Next, stir in the remaining ingredients. Lastly, set in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to set.
Then, serve with fresh berries or coconut whipped cream, grab a spoon, and dig in!
