For more than half of my fourth grade existence, I went through a phase where I was completely obsessed with Jello pudding cups.
Every day, I’d find a different flavor packed into my lunchbox—anything from chocolate, to butterscotch, to cheesecake, to classic vanilla. I loved them all. Today’s recipe reminds me of those Jello pudding cups, made even better with the addition of the rich chocolate shell that breaks to reveal a layer of creamy homemade pudding underneath.
Mounds Bar Chocolate Coconut Pudding Cups
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- scant 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup coconut butter
- 6 oz Mori-Nu firm tofu OR cashew cream
- pinch pure stevia, or 1 tbsp sugar of choice
- 1 tbsp milk of choice
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- shredded coconut, if desired
Combine all ingredients in a small blender or magic bullet, and process until completely smooth. Pour into cups or bowls, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes to thicken. Optional topping: Mix together 1 tbsp each cocoa powder, pure maple syrup, and coconut oil. Pour over the chilled puddings and refrigerate 10 minutes to harden. Recipe makes about 3-4 pudding cups.

Do you ever make your own homemade pudding?
Any favorite flavors? I’m partial to my Homemade Chocolate Pudding, but now that I’m in a pudding-making mood, I feel like experimenting. Do you have any flavor requests?

This recipe sounds so good! I have to work late, so I think I might treat myself with one these when I’m done 🙂 Cookies and Creme would be magical…or Peanut Butter Cup…or both, please! 😀 Also, I would love a Cookie Dough Iced Coffee flavor if you have one, those Dunkin Donut commercials are so torturing me!
I didn’t have coconut butter, so I replaced it with the same amount of peanut butter (PB2 mixed into peanut butter, actually), and it tasted like a peanut butter cup! Thank you for these recipes, I am eating healthy AND enjoying it because of you!
I particularly love butterscotch pudding and have yet to find one that compares to Jello butterscotch boxed pudding mix. Of course I can’t eat that so I keep hoping someone will create a recipe for me
How do you come up with such mouthwatering recipes? Really! This looks beyond delicious! 🙂
Has anyone tried making this with more stevia instead of the maple syrup??
This makes me think of the French dessert chocolate pot de cremé! I would LOVE to try your version of that!!! 🙂
I had a lot of success making this- I used a different brand of firm tofu, and added a packet of stevia along with 1/2 a tablespoon of coconut sugar, and some vanilla and cinnamon. I am not a huge coconut fan, but I really loved this recipe-creamy, thick, and decadent.

Sure! Sounds delicious! Be sure to report back if you try it!
