  • 1/2 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 Tablespoon creamy peanut butter Stir thoroughly for incorporation.
Chocolate Hard Shell
  • 2 Tablespoons chocolate chips Any type of chocolate can be used.
  • 1 Teaspoon coconut oil Keeps the shell smooth.
  • to taste roasted peanuts For sprinkling on top.
  • to taste flaky salt For seasoning.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Mix the pudding base in a jar. Add the chia seeds, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and creamy peanut butter to a jar. Stir well until the peanut butter is fully blended.
  2. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the thickest texture.
Chocolate Topping
  1. Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave or double boiler, stirring until glossy and smooth.
  2. Pour the melted chocolate over the chilled pudding and sprinkle with roasted peanuts and a pinch of flaky salt.
  3. Chill briefly to harden. Refrigerate for a few more minutes until the chocolate sets.
Serve
