Ingredients

For the pudding base

2 cups plain Greek yogurt Provides rich, creamy body.
2 tablespoons maple syrup Adds sweetness and mild caramel note.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract Brightens flavor.
1 cup milk of your choice (dairy or plant-based) Thins the base for blending.
½ cup chia seeds Thickening agent that creates pudding texture.
1.5 tablespoons instant espresso powder Provides coffee flavor without brewing.
a pinch salt Balances sweetness and deepens flavor.

For the topping

1 cup plain Greek yogurt Creates the creamy topping.
2 teaspoons maple syrup Provides subtle sweetness.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract Adds aroma and slight sweetness.
Unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting Final layer providing bitterness to balance sweetness.

Method

Preparation

Gather all ingredients for the pudding base.
In a high-speed blender, combine all pudding base ingredients.
Blend on medium-high for about 60 seconds, scraping down sides until smooth and mousse-like.
Divide the blended pudding into four jars or containers, smoothing the tops slightly.

Topping

In a small bowl, whisk together the topping ingredients until smooth and slightly airy.
Spoon the topping evenly over each pudding jar.
Dust cocoa powder generously on each jar.

Chilling

Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
Serve straight from the jar, optionally stirring in the cocoa before eating.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 4-5 days. The chia will continue to thicken each day. Avoid microwaving the jars directly; instead, transfer to a safe bowl if needed.
