  • 1.5 cups milk almond, oat, or dairy
  • 0.5 cup espresso or strong coffee cooled
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Glass jars
  • Sieve

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, cooled coffee, 3 tbsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp vanilla.
  2. Add chia seeds and whisk vigorously immediately to prevent clumping.
  3. Let sit for 10 minutes, then whisk again. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
  4. In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt (or mascarpone) with 1 tbsp maple syrup and 0.5 tsp vanilla until smooth.
  5. Assemble jars: Place a layer of chia pudding at the bottom.
  6. Add a thick layer of the cream mixture in the middle.
  7. Top with the remaining chia pudding.
  8. Dust generously with cocoa powder and top with espresso beans before serving.

Notes

Blend the chia base before chilling for a smooth, mousse-like texture.
