If you like a chocolate mousse but want to avoid processed and refined foods, this is a winner. It is very filling and you can play with the flavours and additions to make it your own.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups almond milk (or other plant milk of your choice)
1/3 cup chia seeds
¼ cup cocoa or cacao
powder
2-5 tbsps of maple syrup or agave nectar
½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
¼ tsp sea salt

Method

1. Add everything except the maple syrup to a bowl
2. and whisk vigorously to combine.
3. Let it rest in the fridge overnight or for at least 3-5
4. hours and it will reach a pudding like consistency.
5. Add to a blender and blend until it is smooth and
6. creamy.
7. Add the maple syrup to taste.
8. Keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
9. Top with whatever you want! I like a bit of yoghurt
10. as it is very rich, and a few berries.
