Servings: 2

Ingredients

For the Chia Base:

   • Stir in the chia seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

   • Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the chia seeds to thicken and create a pudding-like consistency.

   • Divide the chia mixture evenly between two serving glasses or bowls.

   • Sprinkle half of the crushed graham crackers on top of each chia layer.

3. Prepare the Topping:

   • In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.

   • Spoon the mixture over the chia and graham cracker layers.

4. Finish and Serve:

   • Dust the tops with unsweetened cocoa powder.

   • Optionally, garnish with additional graham cracker crumbs or a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings.

   • Chill for 10-15 minutes if desired, then serve and enjoy!
