Anweisungen

For the Chocolate Chia Pudding Layer, stir together the milk, chia seeds, cocoa powder, stevia, vanilla, and salt in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Once the pudding has “gelled”, divide it between two glass jars.

For the Cherry Jam Layer, add the cherries and water to a small saucepan over medium heat. Cover the saucepan and cook until the cherries are soft, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding a splash more water if needed. Mash up the cherries a bit with a fork, and stir in the stevia, almond extract, and salt. Cool to room temperature, and then store covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. (Alternatively, you can make this in the microwave instead of on the stovetop.) Once cooled, spoon the Cherry Jam on top of the 2 chia puddings.

For the Cherry Banana Nice Cream Layer, add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and process until smooth and creamy (adding only enough liquid so it reaches the right consistency), tamping down the ingredients as necessary. Spoon the nice cream on top of the Cherry Jam Layer. Top each with a cherry and 1 teaspoon chopped chocolate.

Once the nice cream layer is added to the pudding, serve immediately.
