In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, chia seeds, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, cinnamon powder, and sweetener until well combined and smooth.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken, creating a pudding-like consistency.
After 30-45 minutes, give the mixture an extra whisk or stir. This helps to break up any clumps and ensures the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Before serving, give the pudding a good stir to ensure an even texture.
Serve the chia pudding as is, or customize with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, chocolate chips, or shredded coconut.
