In a separate measuring jar, whisk together the cashew milk (or preferably non-dairy milk), maple syrup, and vanilla. You can add a pinch of salt if you like, too. Pour this dairy-free mixture into the bowl with chia seeds and cocoa powder.
Whisk well, and place the mixture in the refrigerator to rest for 15-20 minutes. This allows chia seeds to release their thickening properties.
