- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 tbsp arrowroot starch
- 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ¾ tsp ground cardamom
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
- 1
Shake the can of coconut milk well, then pour it into a medium saucepan. Whisk in the cocoa powder, arrowroot starch, maple syrup, ground ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt until no dry streaks remain and the mixture is smooth.

Set the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon and a finger drawn through leaves a clean line — about 8 to 10 minutes. Watch the heat; reduce to medium-low if the bottom begins to stick before the pudding has fully thickened.
