Tap a time to watch that step in the video.

  1. Heat the cream and almond milk in a saucepan over medium heat until it just simmers, then take it off the heat and whisk in the Swerve and allulose until dissolved. 0:33
  2. Whisk the egg, egg yolks and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Slowly drizzle in about 1/2 cup of the hot cream while whisking, then whisk the warmed eggs back into the pan in a thin stream. 1:28
  3. Whisk in the cocoa until smooth. Return to medium-low heat and whisk constantly, reaching into the corners, for 4–5 minutes until it thickens. 2:42
  4. Sprinkle in the glucomannan while whisking quickly. When it looks like chocolate sauce rather than hot chocolate, take it off the heat. 3:26
  5. Whisk in the butter and vanilla until melted and smooth (if it looks curdled, blend it smooth). 4:02
  6. Pour into 6 small glasses and chill 2–3 hours until set. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream. 4:41

Tip. Dairy-free: use full-fat coconut milk for the cream and almond milk, and coconut oil for the butter. All-allulose pudding takes longer to set. Shaved sugar-free chocolate is a nice topping. Keeps 4 days chilled.

Vitamin A High36%

325 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (62%). Keeps eyes, skin and the immune system healthy. Orange vegetables and dark greens give beta-carotene, which the body turns into vitamin A.

Selenium Source15%

8.4 µg a serve, mostly from egg yolks (38%). Part of the body's antioxidant enzymes and needed for thyroid hormones. Seafood, eggs, meat and Brazil nuts are rich sources.

Vitamin B12 Source14%

0.3 µg a serve, mostly from egg yolks (34%). Keeps nerves and blood cells healthy. Found almost only in animal foods and fortified foods (some plant milks, nutritional yeast), so vegans need a reliable source.

Omega-3 Source14%

0.2 g a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (67%). Omega-3 fats support the heart and brain. Oily fish give EPA and DHA; walnuts, flax, chia and canola give ALA, which the body converts only a little.

Vitamin E Source12%

1.8 mg a serve, mostly from unsweetened almond milk (46%). An antioxidant that protects cell membranes. Nuts, seeds and plant oils such as olive oil are the main sources.

Magnesium8%

32 mg a serve, mostly from dutch-process cocoa powder (78%). Takes part in hundreds of reactions — energy, muscles, nerves, blood sugar and bones. Nuts, seeds, legumes and whole grains are good sources.

Zinc7%

0.7 mg a serve, mostly from dutch-process cocoa powder (47%). Needed for immunity, wound healing, taste and growth. Meat, seafood, legumes, seeds and whole grains supply it.

Iron6%

1.1 mg a serve, mostly from dutch-process cocoa powder (63%). Carries oxygen in your blood. Iron from plants absorbs better with vitamin C in the same meal — lemon, tomato or capsicum.

Vitamin D6%

1.2 µg a serve, mostly from egg yolks (25%). Helps you absorb calcium for bones and supports muscles. Few foods have much — oily fish, eggs, UV-exposed mushrooms, fortified milks. Sunlight is the main source.

Potassium4%

170 mg a serve, mostly from dutch-process cocoa powder (45%). Balances sodium to help control blood pressure and keeps muscles and nerves working. Beans, potatoes, leafy greens and fruit are rich sources.

Folate4%

16 µg a serve, mostly from egg yolks (50%). Needed to make DNA and new cells — especially important before and in early pregnancy. Legumes and leafy greens are rich sources.

Vitamin B63%

0.1 mg a serve, mostly from egg yolks (37%). Helps turn food into energy and make brain messengers. Chickpeas, fish, poultry, potatoes and bananas are good sources.

Vitamin K2%

2.6 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (61%). Needed for blood clotting and bones. Leafy greens and herbs are very rich in it. If you take warfarin, keep your intake steady and talk to your doctor.

Vitamin C0%

0.4 mg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (83%). An antioxidant needed for collagen, immunity and iron absorption. Long cooking destroys some, so raw herbs, citrus and capsicum help.
