Chocolate Chia Pudding

Healthy and delicious. Chia seeds are full of omega 3, fibre, protein and antioxidants. Satisfy your chocolate cravings with this beautiful satisfying raw dessert recipe. It also makes for a great energising breakfast! You can also add a tablespoon to smoothies.

1 1/2 cups of nut mylk
4 tbsp of chia seeds
1 tsp of vanilla essence
pinch of celtic sea salt
3 tbsp of raw cacao
2 tbsp of agave nectar or maple syrup or to sweeten (you could also use a pinch of stevia)
Cacao nibs to serve

Place all ingredients in a jar. Seal tightly with a lid and shake well. Keep shaking every few minutes to ensure that the chia seeds don't clump together. They will slowly start to swell. For a thick chia pudding leave in the fridge overnight. The longer you leave the chia the thicker the pudding will become until it reaches a sago like consistency. Serve with a raw cacao nibs, sifted raw cacao and a drizzle of maple syrup or agave nectar :)
