Notes

  • Nutrition facts includes the toppings: melted chocolate, strawberries, and coconut whip.
  • The chill time is important for the pudding to thicken up. If you can use full-fat even better. If not use 4%.
  • After adding the melted chocolate, you can chill it in the fridge again for another 10-15 minutes so it hardens a bit. I personally like it melted. So its up to you.
  • Use any berries for topping.
  • Instead of coconut whip, you can use yogurt or skip altogether.
