Step 1

In a mixing bowl or jar, combine chia seeds with cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to ensure the cocoa powder dissolves evenly.

Step 2

Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes, then stir again to prevent the chia seeds from clumping.

Step 3

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours (preferably overnight), or until thickened. Once set, give it a final stir and serve with your favorite toppings such as Greek yogurt, sliced banana, fresh berries and cocoa nibs.
