My employer is vegan and had me whip up this nummy pudding for him:
1 can coconut milk (we used Trader Joe's)
1/3 c chia seeds
1/2 c carob chips (or chocolate)
Tbs honey
Tbs vanilla (or you can use a shot of brandy if you like, I used Kahula)
shredded coconut to taste
Heat coconut milk slowly stirring occasionally. Add chocolate or carob chips and stir till melted in. Add chia seeds, vanilla and honey. Stir until it thickens. Add in coconut flakes. Let cool...
The chia seeds are what thicken the pudding. You cant taste them but the texture of them is interesting. I put the mixture in a chocolate pie crust fro Thanksgiving dessert. Enjoy
