How to Make the Chocolate Pudding
Step 1: Mix the Ingredients
In a saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, cocoa powder, maple syrup, and cornstarch until completely smooth. Make sure there are no lumps before heating.
Step 2: Cook Until Thick
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly. After about 5–7 minutes, the mixture will thicken into a rich, pudding-like consistency.
Step 3: Add Vanilla
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the pudding cool slightly — it will thicken more as it cools.
