Bounty Pudding (for thee who imbibes cocoa)

There are the days I really need some chocolate. There are the days I need to feel wholesome. There are the days when I really don't have the patience for baking. Sadly, today all of these days were TOday. So I sorta made this recipe up by pulling a Colonial Hog and rooting around for some good shit in the pantry. As a result of my endeavors, I'm going to dub this little delicacy "Bounty Pudding" because...it's pudding...and it's bountiful.  Duh.You're not very smart, are you?
Why does everything look prettier in a wineglass?

You will need the following:
1 1/2 cups chocolate soymilk
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tbs unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup oats
1/4 cup slivered almonds/chopped pecans/chopped walnuts
1 ripe banana, chopped
2 squares chopped Baker's semisweet chocolate or 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips
2 teaspoons chia or flaxseed

The Procedure
Take your soymilk and set it on medium-low heat in a small saucepan. Then take the cornstarch, coconut, and oats and toss 'em all in there. Begin to whisk, from now on only take a break from whisking to add more ingredients. If you stop whisking for too long it'll clump. After about 2 minutes, throw in the almonds. Stir for another minute. Now toss in the bananas and chocolate, by now the mixture should be thickening. Keep stirring until the chocolate is melted and the mixture reaches a pudding-like consistancy (remember, it'll thicken as it cools, too).
Throw in your chia at last minute (if it gets too warm it'll lose its Omega-3s). Now you have two options.
1-you can pop it in the fridge overnight and have a delicious pudding for the morning (cuz you're so rebelious you eat dessert for breakfast, man)

2-EAT IT RIGHT FREAKING NOW! You don't care that it's hot, you'll just dip some grannysmith apples in it and call it healthy fondue! You'll serve it with some vegan soy vanilla ice cream! You'll eat it straight from the pan because no one is looking! Do itttttt

Chocolate and bananas. Proof God is real.
