Chocolate Chia Pudding-The Rawtarian

By SpartyGreenMom

Ingredients

• 2 cups water
• 1 cup cashews
• 2 tablespoons cacao powder
• 2 tablespoons honey or other liquid sweetener
• 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/3 cup chia seeds -reserve!
• 4 servings

Preparation

Step 1

1. Blend cashews and water until nice and smooth.
2. Add everything else (except the chia seeds). Blend again.
3. Place the chia seeds in a bowl. Add the blended mixture. Stir thoroughly to ensure the chia seeds are well distributed.
4. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 1 hour - ideally longer). (The purpose for refrigerating is to allow the chia seeds to plump up over time. They will increase approximately 10 times their size! And they will thicken the pudding in a few hours.)
5. Eat in the morning or for dessert in the evening! Stir well again before eating.
