RECIPE

Chocolate Mousse Cake

Recipe

Tin/mold: 18 cm

Crust

Ingredients:

80 g Hazelnuts

70 Dates (chopped and pitted)

1 1/2 tbsp Cacao Powder

METHOD FOR THE BASE:

• Combine the ingredients for the crust in a food processor, and process until the dough sticks together when you press it between your fingers.
• Line a 18 cm tin with baking paper and line the tin with the dough you’ve just made. Make sure you press it really well so that it’s compacted and holds together well.
• Set aside.

Chocolate Mousse Cream

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup cashew nuts (120 g) (let them soak for at least 8 hours before using them)

• 100 g virgin coconut oil

• 70 g rice syrup, coconut nectar or maple syrup

• 80 g coconut milk with cream

• 4 tbsp Cacao powder (raw)

Optional: some vanilla

Some extra raw chocolate for the decoration

METHOD:

• Place all the cream ingredients in a blender and blend until very smooth, at lease 5 minutes. The smoother the better.
• Spread the chocolate cream on the hazelnut crust. Hit the tin a few times against the table for the bubbles in the cream to pop.
• Put the cake in the freezer for at least 3 hours or leave it in the fridge over night.
• Take it out 30 minutes before enjoying it. (When you have storaged the cake in the fridge you don´t need to wait 30 minutes.)
• Decorate with a few tbsp melted chocolate and enjoy with tea and berries!
• Storage in the fridge.

ENJOY!
