A rich and creamy chocolate chia pudding that's easy to make and perfect for a healthy dessert or breakfast.

0.25 cup chia seeds
1 cup milk of choice ((almond, oat, coconut, or dairy))
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (use the good stuff for deep, rich flavor)
2-3 tablespoons maple syrup or honey (adjust to your sweetness preference)
0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, adds warmth)
Pinch salt (brings out the chocolate)
to taste fresh berries
to taste sliced banana
to taste shaved chocolate
to taste coconut flakes
to taste nut butter drizzle

Whisk together milk, cocoa powder, sweetener, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
Add chia seeds and stir thoroughly to distribute evenly.
Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir again to prevent clumping.
Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours or overnight to set.
Stir before serving, then top with berries, banana, chocolate shavings, coconut, and nut butter.

For best flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder and fresh toppings.
