Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 135g fat-free Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
- 1 tbsp smooth peanut butter
- 1 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
Chocolate Topping
- 20g dark chocolate
- 20g dark chocolate (melted)
- A drizzle of peanut butter (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: Break the 20g of dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heat-proof bowl. Microwave on high in short bursts of a few seconds, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted. Set aside and allow to cool slightly.
- Mix the Pudding Base: In a separate bowl, combine the fat-free Greek yogurt, smooth peanut butter, cocoa powder, and maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated, forming a smooth pudding mixture.
- Assemble the Pudding: Divide the pudding mixture evenly between two dessert glasses or ramekins, ensuring a smooth and level surface.
- Add Toppings: Spoon the melted dark chocolate over the top of the pudding. Optionally, drizzle a little extra peanut butter on top for added flavor and decoration.
- Serve or Chill: Serve the pudding immediately for a creamy, soft texture or refrigerate for about 1 hour to achieve a thicker pudding consistency and a firmer chocolate topping.
Notes
- You can substitute fat-free Greek yogurt with any dairy-free yogurt to make this recipe vegan.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
- Ensure the melted chocolate is cooled slightly before topping to prevent it from sinking into the pudding.
- For a crunchy texture, sprinkle crushed nuts or granola on top before serving.
- This dessert is best consumed within 2 days when refrigerated.
