Ingredients
- 1 scoop (approx. 30g) chocolate protein powder (casein or a blend works best for thickness)
- 1/2 cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk (or milk of your choice)
- 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch-processed for richer flavor)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 1-2 tsp sweetener of choice (e.g., erythritol, stevia, maple syrup), optional and to taste
- Pinch of salt (enhances chocolate flavor)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the chocolate protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Whisk briefly to combine the dry ingredients.
- Gradually add the unsweetened almond milk to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously with a fork or mini whisk to avoid lumps. If you prefer, you can blend all ingredients in a small blender or food processor until smooth.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and optional sweetener, if using. Continue whisking until the mixture is completely smooth and reaches your desired pudding-like consistency. It should be thick and creamy.
- For best results and a firmer, chilled consistency, cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The pudding will thicken further as it chills.
- Serve cold and enjoy this delicious, healthy, and protein-packed chocolate pudding as a snack or dessert.
