Description

This Chocolate Protein Pudding is a creamy, delicious, and healthy dessert or snack option rich in protein and chocolate flavor. Made with simple ingredients like cocoa powder, protein powder, and milk, it’s naturally sweetened with honey or maple syrup and requires no cooking. Perfect for a quick, nutritious treat that can be prepared in minutes and chilled to a smooth, pudding-like texture.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (or milk alternative of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, chocolate protein powder, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is well combined and free of lumps.
  2. Add Wet Ingredients: Gradually pour in the milk, followed by the honey or maple syrup, and the vanilla extract. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and uniform in texture.
  3. Adjust Sweetness: Taste the pudding mixture and add more honey or maple syrup if a sweeter flavor is desired. Stir well to incorporate any additional sweetener.
  4. Chill to Set: Pour the pudding mixture into serving cups or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow it to thicken and set to a pudding-like consistency.
  5. Serve: Once chilled and set, serve the pudding cold. Optionally, garnish with fresh fruit, nuts, or other toppings of your choice for added flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Use any milk alternative such as almond, soy, or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
  • The pudding will thicken more as it chills; ensure it is refrigerated for the full hour for best consistency.
  • Adjust the level of sweetness to suit personal taste by adding more or less honey or maple syrup.
  • For extra texture and flavor, consider adding toppings like sliced bananas, berries, chopped nuts, or coconut flakes.
  • Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
