This rich chocolate pudding is made with only four ingredients ~ cocoa powder, cashews, water, and honey.  A quick blitz in the blender and voila!

For a grown up version that enhances the rich chocolatey flavor, use coffee instead of water.  A few spoonfuls of this luscious dessert is all you need!
