Smooth Vegan Chocolate Pudding with layered Sweet Peaches

This recipe is very fun to make.
There is something special about eating a smooth velvety cool pudding:)
I have eaten this for breakfast even!
The addition of peaches brings it to a different level.
You really never see peaches and chocolate, but it is a good combo!
If you don't have peaches or you don't like them, try a different fruit
you like.
Anything works for this recipe, even a different flavor of milk.
This recipe makes a good amount, the pan I used was 25 1/2 cm by 16 1/2 cm or
10 in by 6 1/2 inches


Smooth Vegan Chocolate Pudding with layered Sweet Peaches
serves 6 to 8 large portions or 10 to 12 smaller

5 ripe peaches
1 liter milk (I used oat milk, chocolate)
6 Tablespoons potato starch
4 Tablespoons raw sugar( you can leave out if you don't want it too sweet)
3 crisp cookies (I used gluten free)

Small stock pan pour 3/4 of the liter of milk, with the rest pour in small bowl
and mix in starch and sugar, stir until well combined.
On medium heat, heat milk until it is warm to touch and add in starch and sugar mixture.
Stir until thickened 5-7 minutes. Every stove top is different, so stir until thickened.
Remove from heat and put in bowl to cool. It should be room temperature, before assembly.
Wash peaches and slice, remove stone.
Layer the pan with half of the peach slices

Then pour the cooled pudding on top, add the rest of the peaches, and
crumble the cookies with your hands all over the top:)
Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours before serving!

Daiya Vegan Key Lime Cheezecake Review:)

I love Daiya products so much:) There products really have great flavor and are a wonderful alternative for us vegans, or people who cannot have dairy.
 When I saw it in the freezer section, um interesting!
I am not a cheesecake fan, it is heavy and sooooooo rich, I never really would eat it
before I became vegan.
I read the ingredients, and I was like this sound so good.  
The bonus, it was also gluten free!!!!

They make 4 flavors Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, and Key Lime:)
I picked Key Lime, because when you eat vegan and gluten free, Key Lime is very
rarely an option:(
The main ingredient is coconut, so you know it is going to be very creamy!
When arriving home I read the directions, they say to thaw in refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours.
I left it in over night, it worked perfectly:)
Important to eat it 48 hours after thawing, no problem, it will be gone;)
When I opened the box I could smell the Key Lime already!
How does it taste? I know you are thinking!
AMAZING, totally creamy, the right amount of key lime!
The crust is light and tastes just like a regular graham cracker crust!
It tastes like the best cream, rich, thick, smooth, flavorful piece of "regular" cheesecake you have every had.
You can't tell it is vegan, and gluten free!!!!!
I served smaller pieces the first time, and then we wanted seconds, but then the richness
of the second piece came out, and we had to save the rest for the next day.
I would definitely purchase this again!
Cheesecake is a difficult cake to make, so why do you have too, just buy this one,
and in 3 hours you could be eating this creamy, rich, smooth delectable cheezecake:)
 You can see when I cut the piece, it was very smooth and creamy!


   Enjoy, remember if your store doesn't sell it, tell them you WANT IT!!!
