Mixing bowls
Whisk or electric mixer
Spatula
Springform pan
Saucepan
- 2 cups almond flour or oat flour
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 3/4 cup dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), melted
- 3/4 cup unsweetened milk chocolate alternative
- 3/4 cup white chocolate alternative (dairy-free, if preferred)
- 3 cups coconut cream (chilled overnight)
- 3 tbsp coconut sugar for each mousse layer
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/2 cup coconut cream for ganache
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher), chopped for ganache
Mix almond flour, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup in a bowl until it resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into the base of a springform pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.
Whip 1 cup of chilled coconut cream with 1 tbsp of coconut sugar until soft peaks form, then fold in melted dark chocolate and spread over the crust.
Repeat the whipping process with the milk chocolate alternative, spreading it gently on top of the dark chocolate layer.
For the last layer, fold melted white chocolate into the remaining whipped coconut cream, then spread it evenly on top.
Cover the cake and let it chill in the fridge for 4-6 hours to set.
Heat the coconut cream in a saucepan until simmering, then pour it over chopped dark chocolate and stir until smooth for the ganache.
Pour the ganache over the chilled cake, letting it drip down the sides.
Make sure your coconut cream is thoroughly chilled for fluffy mousse layers.
Consider letting the cake sit overnight to meld the flavors together for an even more decadent experience.
Garnish with fresh berries or mint leaves for extra color and freshness.
This cake can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Just wrap individual slices in parchment for best results.
