Here’s a simple, creamy chocolate chia pudding recipe you can make in minutes (then let it chill):
🍫 Chocolate Chia Pudding
Ingredients (1–2 servings)
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 cup milk (dairy, almond, oat, or coconut)
1–2 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
1–2 tbsp sweetener (maple syrup, honey, or sugar)
½ tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Mix everything
In a bowl or jar, whisk together milk, cocoa powder, sweetener, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
Add chia seeds
Stir in chia seeds well so they don’t clump.
Let it sit briefly
Wait 5–10 minutes, then stir again (this helps prevent clumping).
Chill
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best texture.
Serve
Stir once more before eating. Add toppings if you like.
Topping Ideas
Fresh berries 🍓
Banana slices 🍌
Nut butter (peanut or almond)
Shredded coconut
Dark chocolate chips
Tips
Thicker pudding: add an extra ½ tbsp chia seeds
Sweeter: increase sweetener or add mashed banana
Extra rich: use coconut milk or add a spoon of yogurt
If you want, I can give you a high-protein, keto, or overnight meal-prep version too.
