Chocolate Avocado Cake
Do you know the following saying? “If your happy let your face know about it” When I heard this quote for the first time I really had to laugh out loud because I must admit that it describes my approach a little bit.
How many times have I held my head low even though I had no reason not to be happy just because a tiny little thing didn’t go my way. That mindset is just stupid and I am working hard on it to go away asap. And to excellerate this process I created this chocolate cake. One for you and one for me 😉
Oh did you already inform your face? haha
Chocolate Avocado Cake
- 2 tablespoons of cocoa or raw cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup of ground cashews or walnuts
- 1/2 cup of coconut rasps (unsweetened)
- 1/2 cup of dried dates
- A pinch of sea salt
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1 ripe banana
- 60 g of cocoa powder
- 5 tablespoons of agave syrup
- 30 g of white and peeled almonds
- 25 g of coconut blossom sugar
- 2 tablespoons of water
Lay out a spring form of 20-22 cm with some baking paper. Fill all the ingredients of the cake base into a food processor and mix everything into a dough. Afterwards distribute the dough with your hands into the spring form. While distributing the dough into the spring form, create a little edge along the wall and store it for about an hour inside the fridge. You can prepare the cracknel in the mean time.
Start to hack the almonds into the desired form, add the water and the sugar into a pan and stir over and over again. As soon as the water/sugar mixture turns brown add the hacked almonds, turn down the heat a bit and keep on stirring until you get a nice and brownish cracknel.
Let the cracknel cool down and hack it small afterwards.
Now peel and halve the avocado’s, remove the stones and chop them into small pieces. Next, peel the banana, fill all the ingredients of the cream into a blender and mix until you get a soft, creamy paste. After 1 hour take the spring form out of the fridge and start to distribute the cream into it. Finally strew the cracknel over and store the cake once more, for a few hours inside the fridge.
