4.58 32 Published Feb 06, 2016, Updated May 28, 2024 If I’m being honest, I’ve had my heart wreath up for over a month. I’m such a sucker for Valentine’s Day decor because it’s one of my favorite holidays. Not because I’m super sappy (which I am occasionally) but because Valentine’s Day is also my birthday. We call it Birth-Valentine’s Day. Yes, my mom always says I’m her favorite Valentine’s Day gift and yes, Isaac has to get me double the presents. It’s great. The one thing that’s not so great? Trying to make dinner reservations on my birthday. For this reason we usually stay in and cook dinner ourselves. If you’re planning to do the same, I have just the dessert for you. It’s this chocolate covered strawberry chia seed mousse a.k.a the creamiest chia seed pudding I’ve ever eaten.

Ingredients Needed

coconut milk – I prefer using full-fat coconut milk because it increases the thickness, but feel free to use the milk of your choice. strawberries – the real star of the show here! maple syrup, honey, or stevia – totally optional, but these are my go-to natural sweeteners. chia seeds – the real MVP of this recipe. 😉 vanilla – the perfect flavor enhancer. chocolate chips – I love Lily’s chocolate chips for a low-sugar option and Enjoy Life chocolate chips for a dairy-free/soy-free option. coconut oil – melt the coconut oil with the chocolate chips and drizzle over the chia pudding to create a magic shell coating.
