Chocolate Orange Pudding

This is similar to a post last year called Chocolate Coconut Pie. One of my friends says their family makes it all the time and has renamed it Truffle Pie. This recipe is even easier, as their is no crust to make.

Chocolate Orange Pudding

Stephanie recently gave me a book called Great Gluten-Free Vegan Eats by Allyson Kramer. The book shares my interest in gluten free cooking and Stephs vegan life style, I am really interested in trying many of the recipes and sharing some of Stephs and my favorites with you.

1 Tablespoon orange zest

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 bag (12 ounces) chocolate chips

1 can (14 ounces) coconut milk

In a heat safe bowl, mix together orange zest, vanilla extract and chocolate chips.

In a small saucepan, bring the coconut milk to a boil and pour over the chocolate chips and whisk until well blended.

Pour into 6 individual dishes and chill in the fridge until set, about 3 hours.

Note: As I was writing this I was thinking I have to try this with coffee or Kahlua, topped with a chocolate coffee bean. The book also recommends using almond extract in place of orange zest for another flavor.
