Rich Chocolate Pudding Recipe - Low Carb, Keto, Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free, THM S
I set out to make dairy free fudge yesterday. And I ended up with pudding. That is a kitchen fail I can live with. The only low carb puddings I've tried have had a thickener in them that ends up altering the texture. This pudding is basically reduced coconut milk with sweetener and chocolate. No thickeners are needed. It takes a good amount of time to reduce the coconut milk but you only need to give it a stir every 10-15 minutes so it's pretty hands off.
Every bowl of chocolate pudding deserves a dollop of whipped cream. I cheated and used a squirt from a can (not dairy free and it has a small amount of added sugar) for my photos. Anytime my kids see a can of whipped cream they want a squirt in their mouths. I am happy to oblige. I believe whipped cream directly from the can into the mouth is a necessary part of childhood.
