Ingredients
1 1/2cupscoconut creamcanned, organic
1/2cupraw cacao powder or unsweetened cocoa powdersifted
6Tbsppure maple syrup
2tsppure vanilla extract
1/4tspfine grain sea salt
Instructions
In a small saucepan over low heat, whisk together the coconut cream, cacao, and maple syrup (start with 6 Tbsp, or even less if you want a very dark chocolate pudding until smooth.
The coconut cream will melt and the maple and cacao should combine well to create a smooth silky mixture. Continue to cook and stir over low/med heat for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture just begins to come to a boil with small bubbles.
Remove from heat at this point, and stir in the salt and vanilla. Taste, and add a bit more maple syrup if you'd like a sweeter pudding. You can pour the mixture into individual containers/bowls to chill and set or simply in one larger bowl and divide later.
Cover and refrigerate until set or overnight for a thick creamy pudding. Makes about 4 servings.
