Dairy Free Chocolate Pudding – Delicious creamy Chocolate pudding prepared with Almond Milk
I love pudding even when I am not aware that it is called as pudding. Yes, It was on one of those days when I went to a nearby local shop with my mom for groceries, I stumbled upon tiny cups with colorful stuff inside near the bill counter. The colors inside those cups were so mild and tempting. After a lot of cry and try, my mom finally agreed to buy me a cup and I chose pinkish one. I was a typical pinky girl during my early days. Mom advised me as not to reveal about this cups to my little brothers. I promised her so. On the way back home from the shop, I ate jelly like substance stuffed inside the cup and yes, I loved it. Later, it has become my habit to insist my mom to get me one and every time I chose a different color. Of all those color, I loved the white one.
As days went, I couldn’t find these cups near to the counter. Since I never know as for how they are addressed, I was blinking every time and failed miserably in explaining what I meant to a tall brother who used to work at that store. After several months, I came to know its name as pudding and what I loved was lychee pudding. Even now, I have the habit of picking up pudding from any stores – not just one or two but a dozen of them. Though I loved them wholeheartedly, I never tried to prepare them at my kitchen. Since I tasted Chocolate pudding at a local store, I was tempted to try the same in my kitchen. And it happened finally! What’s more interesting is – It is dairy free! But then, you are free to substitute almond milk with full-fat milk. I have tried using milk and with almond milk. Both the combinations taste divine!
