Viral Boiled Egg Chocolate Pudding Recipe
My sister Tatyana, sent me this viral hard-boiled egg chocolate pudding recipe, and when I saw the ingredients, I thought exactly what you’re thinking—how weird! Tatyana is an APRN, CRNA, and NSPM-C and runs a functional pain clinic in Idaho. I love it when she shares her insights into nutrition and never steers me wrong, so I decided to try it. My sister also introduced me to Date Snickers (a fantastic treat that doesn’t spike your blood sugar the same way candy would).
In my research, I discovered that the original boiled egg pudding was originally invented by Maria Emmerich. I was shocked by the results and couldn’t wait to share it! It tastes like a yummy chocolate pudding but has lots of protein and only 5 ingredients. It’s also grain-free and gluten-free, and if you substitute almond milk, it can be dairy-free.
Throw out those powdered pudding packets, because you won’t need them anymore! All you need is this recipe and a blender.
Ingredients for Hard-boiled Egg Chocolate Pudding
This quick, chocolatey snack requires only 5 ingredients that you probably have stocked in your pantry.
- Hard Boiled Eggs – to make these, follow this Perfect Boiled Eggs tutorial or use a pressure cooker with our Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs recipe. While you may also be able to buy these at the store allready cooked, hard-boiled eggs are so easy to make and are great to have prepped in the fridge for snacking.
- Whole Milk – the higher fat content makes the pudding that much more creamy, but you can substitute it with lower-fat milk or even dairy-free milk (almond milk, for example), but the consistency may be a bit more runny. You can also add milk to your desired consistency. It’s easy to stir it in after the pudding is made.
- Pantry Staples – granulated sugar (I prefer organic sugar, but you can substitute with coconut sugar), unsweetened cocoa powder, and Vanilla Extract
Pro Tip:
Soft-boiled eggs will also work for making this pudding, but be sure to cool the eggs after cooking in an ice-water bath before putting them in the blender.
How to Make Chocolate Pudding with Hard-Boiled Eggs
It takes just minutes to make this hard-boiled egg chocolate pudding. It comes together quickly and satisfies your chocolate sweet tooth.
- Blend all the ingredients in a blender until creamy and silky smooth. If it’s grainy looking, keep mixing. You may need to scrape the sides of the blender to be sure it’s all mixed, or add more milk to get your preferred creamy texture.
- Enjoy the chocolate pudding right away, but you will get a creamier flavor and texture if you refrigerate for a few hours before eating.
Make-Ahead
Store covered in an airtight container to keep the hard-boiled egg chocolate pudding fresh-tasting for up to 4 days. It will continue to thicken as it refrigerates. If desired, you can stir in more milk to thin it out. Enjoy it cold right out of the refrigerator.

I was super skeptical about this one; but I trusted Natasha and I’m so glad I did! It’s so good and the texture is amazing. My kids love it too. It tastes great with regular sugar, but great with monk fruit as well. Thanks, Natasha!
Thank you for trying it out and great job on making it! I’m happy to hear that your family enjoyed this pudding recipe!
My pudding came out perfect! I love this recipe and so do my kids! P.S. I’m also in Eagle and LOVE your blog!
I love that you’re also in Eagle! Thank you for your awesome review, Lanette!
This is so good!!!! And very shocking I must say. I was definitely thinking we would taste the egg but we didn’t at all!
Natasha, is there a way to make this a vanilla pudding? Or a different flavor?
I’m so glad you love it, Natalie! At the moment, I don’t have any variations of this recipe to make it another flavors.
This is a great recipe and I follow it exactly. The key is that you must let it chill for a minimum of a few hours otherwise it will taste eggy. I have tired using less sugar but it didn’t taste as good. When chilled it tastes just like the chocolate pudding cups your mum gave you for recess
Thank you for sharing that with me, Meg.
Tasted alright. Not quite like pudding, but not awful. How would you get rid of the eggs smell?
Hi Lynette! If you let it rest in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight, it should help with the egg taste and smell.
I can not believe how delicious this is. It’s so creamy and chocolaty. It was a snap to make in my smoothie blender. I will be making this often.
I’m so glad you loved it!
Will this still work out & be good if I leave the yolks out? I also would use oat milk. I am trying to bring my cholesterol down?
Hi Sue! I haven’t tested just egg whites. I think it’s possible, but it would change the texture and flavor. The yolks add creaminess and depth.
I made 1/2 recipe due to only having 3 eggs already made . I cut the recipe in half and added PB2 and was very tasty! I will next time use less milk though. I also chopped up the eggs more prior to blending with my magic bullet. Will definitely be making this again.
When I do this I just end up with a runny chocolatey liquid. It doesn’t become creamy or thicken at all. Very disappointed.
You must be using too much milk and too small of eggs. Mine cane out perfect but I used large eggs and added milk slowly
I don’t know how this is good but it’s delicious
I substituted honey and used 1/2 c milk
I was genuinely impressed when I first tired it. Thanks for sharing.
Great recipe! I used honey in place of sugar! It was fantastic!! Thank you!
Love to hear that, Tracey! Thank you for sharing that with me.
Delicious! I have found a slightly soft boiled egg has less eggy taste. The harder the egg is boiled the more of that strong sulfur/egg flavor is present. I also didn’t have instant coffee but subbed a bit of the milk (I use soy) for brewed espresso. Really helps the chocolate flavor bloom. Thanks for another great recipe!
You’re very welcome, Nichole! I’m so glad you loved it.
Was excited to try recipe, in the end it’s chocolate eggs and not chocolate pudding.
Hi there! Did you let the pudding rest in the refrigerator? The egg taste will mellow out.
This is phenomenal! I have a vegetarian daughter who does not get enough protein. 38 grams if you eat all of it, which is easy for hubby and me. Has anyone tried to freeze it?
Hi Pam! It doesn’t work well to freeze, it causes it to become grainy and curdled when thawed.
I’ve made this a couple times now and tonight I added a little bit of peppermint extract and I must say it gave it a little bit of edge and tastes amazing and festive given the time of year .
First I made the mistake of eating it right away and there was a bit of an egg odor/slight taste. Then I tried it again the next day after it sat in the fridge overnight and it was excellent – you would never know there was any egg in there at all.
I’m so glad you loved it the next day, Chris!
This was such a tasty treat! I didn’t even taste the egg! The texture was luxurious!
This is truly amazing! Almost perfect really, the egg odor- although mild- is slightly off putting. But otherwise, a new household staple recipe. Thank you!
I saw this somewhere on YouTube and thought I’d make it next time I have extra eggs. OOOOOOOH BABY this is now going into a regular rotation. It is SO good. You. Must let it sit in the fridge for a bit so you don’t run the risk of an egg taste but if you leave it for at least a few hours, you will NOT be disappointed in this recipe. I can’t believe how silky smooth it is. Amazing. Kids love it. Husband loves it. I love it. Pudding for breakfast. Yes please.
This time I added 4 drops of peppermint oil and 1/2 of a scoop of organic instant coffee. Really nice flavor right out of the blender, no egg flavor at all this time. Can’t wait to test it once it’s chilled!
That’s a great idea, Dona!
