Category: Dessert
Cuisine: Vegan
Keywords: Mint, Chocolate

Ingredients:

50 grams of ChocoVivo chocolate - Any pure blends of 75% or 65% .
100 ML of Hazelnut Mylk or any nondairy alternative
Add 3 sprigs of fresh mint
Spike it if you want! 1 tbsp cream liqueur of choice

Optional: Whipped Cream

1 Tbsp Whiskey of choice
1 cup Non Dairy Heavy Cream or Coconut Cream
1 tsp Vanilla Extract

STEP 1

Crumble the chocolate and pour the hazelnut mylk in a small pot on top of the stove. Turn heat to low/medium and wait until it's a low simmer.

STEP 2

Once simmering, give it a good whisk for about 2 to 3 minutes. Chocolate and hazelnut mylk should be well blended without speckles. Be careful not to let mixture boil.

STEP 3

Pour custard-like mixture in a small cup and put it into the refrigerator for about 1 hour. Sprinkle with cacao nibs.

Whipped Cream Topping

STEP 4

Combine dairy-free alternative cream and vanilla extract in bowl and blend on high for about 5 to 8 minutes or until light and fluffy.

If whisking by hand, may take longer but hey, it doubles as a workout!

Store the rest in a airtight container for up to a week. Place them on top of fresh strawberries/fruits, pancakes, or sneak a spoonful when no one is watching.

Variations & Tips

*Use the Coffee + Vanilla bar or Mayan Tradition bar for taste of a Mocha or a taste of Mexican Chocolate!

*The higher the cacao % used in the pudding like the 100% cacao, the thicker the pudding so choose a bar that's low on the sugar, but higher in real chocolate.

*If you want an unsweetened sugar version, try our paleo blends and add maple syrup or even honey.

*If you want it thicker, use oat mylk. Filtered water works well too!

*Make sure to crumble up the bar of chocolate for faster cooking time otherwise we have our cacao powder or chocolate chunks that makes the process easier.

*You can use any other chocolate, but if you cannot get it to set, add a little thickener like cornstarch. That's the secret to the spoon standing up in the famous place in France!
