Made this a few times now with variations. Nice texture, but basic recipe was bland and needed much stronger coffee flavour. I omitted the maple syrup as I avoid added sugar, and the sweetness was fine. Added a layer of crushed walnuts on the bottom for a change of texture, plus a few sprinkled on top for garnish - this worked well. Added some coffee liquer to get a stronger coffee flavour. Subs drinking chocolate powder for cocoa once as I didn't have any, and that makes it sweeter so if you do this, don't add any extra sugar!

I changed the flavours in this recipe and it was delicious. I used 2 metric tablespoons of chia seeds, some pistachios, goji berries and cardamom with soy milk. For sweetness's I used date syrup. It was delicious. Tasted like a healthy version of payasam.

Delicious; ingredient ratios idea, although I only used 1tsp maple syrup, soy milk, (cacao, chia & coffee as per recipe) & topped with Greek yoghurt, blueberries & a dusting of Ceylon cinnamon

I prepared this recipe and found out that the coffee should be really strong and that adding a Tbsp white wine plus additional 2Tbsp of Maple Syrup add a perfect Tiramisu flavor.

Really delicious. I made it with decade coffee for a dinner dessert with a touch of coffee liquor. Quite a treat!

Needs more oomph for flavour possibly missing the coffee liqueur?

Nice and simple with ingredients I’d generally have in the house. I’m not a massive pudding fan, but very much enjoyed this.

I skipped the sugar and it was still yummy,
