Blend the dates with the soya milk and cocoa powder until you have a smooth, chocolatey base with no lumps. Stir the chia seeds thoroughly into the mixture so they're evenly distributed. Leave the pudding to stand briefly, then stir it again. That way fewer lumps form. Cover the container and chill the chia pudding for several hours or overnight, until it has thickened noticeably. Roughly chop the hazelnuts and toast them in a dry frying pan until fragrant. Let them cool briefly. Good to know It sits in the fridge and turns out well all by itself. In the morning, something creamy is waiting for you.
