| The pudding has a thick, creamy texture. |
This is a really tasty pudding, and it's really easy to pull together. The pudding has a Greek yogurt base, so it is high protein and low sugar to boot! You get the health benefits of Greek yogurt without the sour taste. You will need:
1 container of plain Greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
2 spoonfuls of unsweetened cocoa powder (I used Hershey's Special Dark)
1 spoonful of instant coffee
sweetener to taste (I used 1 stevia packet)
a few drops of vanilla extract
Stir everything together and enjoy!
| The yogurt base is really tasty on its own, but it's rather tart. |
| All the ingredients together in one container, before mixing. |

It's so easy! Great idea :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! Your recipes-and photos-all look amazing. I'll have to try some!!!
Deletewhat size container? Teaspoons or tablespoons?
ReplyDeleteIt's really up to you! Taste as you go. If you are not a fan of the flavor of plain yogurt, go heavier on the vanilla and sweetener and light on the instant coffee.
DeleteThis is very tasty! I love the slight coffee flavor. Definite keeper. Thanks! :-)
ReplyDeletei think that you have to use a certain kind of greek yogurt also; i used tazio and it was really bitter. also, don't add too much dry ingredients - it makes the yogurt have a more gritty texture. but thanks for the idea :)
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to let you know I saw this on Pinterest, though the recipe was altered from your original post (it had peanut butter in it). I decided to try it for myself as I was really craving something sweet and chocolatey. I didn't have stevia or instant coffee so I decided to improvise :)
ReplyDeleteI used Fage yogurt, Ghiradelli unsweetened cocoa, vanilla extract, simple syrup, and some good Cinnamon from Penzeys. It was really good. Thank you for this! It really hit the spot!
