Slightly firmer than your typical pudding, warm is the way to indulge in this chocolatey treat.
Dark Chocolate Pudding
Description
The psyllium husk gives this after-dinner treat it's firmness. We put it through the test kitchen a few times to find the perfect quantity. Blending with a blender is strongly recommended for this recipe. Otherwise you may not get a smooth, enjoyable consistency. At the end of the day, it's warm, it's chocolatey. We were audibly saying, "YUMMMM," as we were testing it. Grab your spoon!
Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a small heatproof bowl, whisk together egg and yogurt. Set aside.
-
Place chocolate, olive oil and vanilla extract in a food processor or blender but don’t turn on.
-
In a medium pot, whisk together almond milk, erythritol, cocoa, psyllium husk and salt until smooth. Bring to a full boil, whisking, and let bubble for 1 to 2 minutes to thicken. As soon as it starts to thicken, remove from heat.
-
Pour a little of the hot thickened mixture into the eggs, stirring constantly to prevent them from curdling, then pour eggs back into the pan with the remaining thickened mixture. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly, until mixture just returns to a very low simmer. Immediately pour into the food processor or blender. Run the machine until the pudding is very smooth.
-
Pour into individual bowls and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm and cold, at least 4 hours. Serve with non-fat, plain yogurt and a pinch of sea salt, if desired
