Darkly Decadent Chocolate Pudding



I LOVE pudding! It has been quite awhile since the last time I had any, so I decided it was time to change that. This pudding is thick and rich and decadent....and only for the dark chocolate lover.

This recipe is gluten, egg and dairy free....and you would never know it!

Darkly Decadent Chocolate Pudding
Serves 4-6

2 1/2 cups milk/dairy alternative (I used almond milk)
1/4 cup arrowroot powder
1/2 cup unsweetened cacao powder
1 cup coconut palm sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 TB vanilla extract

1. In a medium saucepan whisk together the milk, arrowroot, cacao powder, palm sugar and salt.

2. Place on a burner over medium heat. Bring to a slight boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon.

3. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Pour into individual bowls and cover with plastic wrap. Serve warm or refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Garnish with fresh raspberries, if desired.

  1. I just found this on Slightly Indulgent Tuesday, and I have one word YUMMY! I just finished making this and I ate my serving right out of the sauce pan. I haven't had pudding since I gave up processed food in January. This is a definate "keeper" recipe. Thank You!

  7. I just made this using unsweetened coconut milk and ate it warm right out of the pot. It was SO GOOD -- much better than the one I usually make using MimicCreme, which ends up kind of gloopy. Thanks for the great recipe!
