Makes 8 x 1/2 cup servings
It’s very quick and easy to make and is more filling that just making a vegan chocolate mousse, and it has a nice warmth to it from the cayenne pepper.
I make sure I use a good quality cacao powder that is chock full of antioxidants – Power Super Foods Cacao Gold is my favourite.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup chia seeds, soaked in 1 cup of water
1/2 cup cashews, soaked for 1 hour
1&1/2 cups of water
1/2 cup cacao powder
1/8 cup raw honey (or 2 Tbsp agave nectar)
2 Tbsp coconut oil
1/2 tsp vanilla pod seeds (or 1&1/2 tsp extract)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp Peruvian Pink Salt
a good pinch or two of cayenne
Method:
Blend until creamy. Dish into small clear bowls, refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
Garnish with fresh fruit, flowers etc as desired.
My note: to add in some extra superfood goodness you can stir through some Goji berries before putting the pudding in the fridge!
