    Chocolate Chia Pudding Cups are my healthier version of the classic chocolate pudding! They only take 5 minutes to prepare and make the perfect dessert or are amazing for breakfast.

    I love being able to adapt many of my favourite desserts (that I can no longer eat) into healthier, gluten and dairy free alternatives.

    I have adapted raw chocolate raspberry slice, raw caramel slice bites, coconut rough, raw bounty slice

    Today's recipe, Chocolate Chia Pudding Cups, can now be added to the collection.

    Chocolate pudding was one of the desserts that I used to enjoy, especially when I went out for dinner.

    The more traditional versions typically contain milk or cream or custard, none of which I can eat. My version is gluten, dairy and sugar free and quite simple to put together.

    I hope you like my healthified version - you don't need to miss out any more!

    Enjoy
