Why not?

Thanks, John, for the cinnamon warning, as I have been sprinkling some cinnamon in my coffee every day and my liver doesn’t deserve any additional mistreatment!

John I feel like pretty much every single dog owner (and person?) out there already knows about the dangers of chocolate, xylitol is a niche ingredient that lacks the same awareness… 😉

But it’s odd that you repeatedly warn readers about the dangers of xylitol to their dogs/pups, while ignoring the fact that your main ingredient (cocoa powder) is just as toxic to dogs.

Also, using cassia cinnamon (store bought cinnamon) is toxic to your liver if taken everyday in amounts of 1 teaspoon or more. It has high amounts of ‘coumarin’ which is a toxic substance to your liver.

While your recipe only calls for 1/2 teaspoon, that’s still a lot of cinnamon for just a single small serving of pudding (just 2 servings would put people over the safe limit; with no warning to them, as you did with xylitol).

Ceylon cinnamon is the only healthy cinnamon that can be eaten in unlimited amounts, as it has almost no coumarin. But it’s rather expensive for most people and can’t be found in most local stores.

Just made this with heavy cream and it worked wonderfully. I didn’t measure the exact amount though, just added a little bit at a timetill it was the consistency I wanted.
