I have to say it: I don't think I've made anything this good in a while. Of course, anything with coffee in it is a winner for me, but this snack/light breakfast/dessert hits so many other marks: great texture, indulgent taste- pretty looking as well.
A little while ago chia seeds were really hard to come by- Holland and Barratt's was the only place I could ever find them. Now Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's, and even Home Bargains stock them. I picked up a massive bag from Home Bargains for around £2, and so am now currently testing out a few different chia pudding recipes- for any of you who enjoy getting hold of slightly more "out there" ingredients. Same with the cacao; I bought this on offer at Holland and Barratt's, but I understand that it can be expensive, and harder to find than a chameleon in a wallpaper shop. A great alternative is unsweetened dark cocoa powder. You won't notice the difference flavour-wise, I swear. With all of that said, lets get on with it...
