If you are craving something sweet but do not want to turn on the oven, this recipe is a total lifesaver. It is incredibly simple to put together, and it results in a texture that is almost like a cross between a mousse and a dense truffle cake.

Since this cake has no flour, eggs, or dairy, it is a wonderful option when you have a limited pantry. My favorite tip is to use a high quality chocolate bar since it is the star of the show here. The better the chocolate, the better your cake will taste.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bars
  • 1 cup full fat canned coconut milk

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place your chocolate in a medium glass mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Heat the coconut milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer.

  3. 3

    Pour the hot coconut milk over the chocolate and let it sit for about five minutes to melt.

  4. 4

    Whisk the mixture slowly until it is smooth and glossy.

  5. 5

    Line a small loaf pan or round cake pan with parchment paper.

  6. 6

    Pour the chocolate mixture into the pan and spread it out evenly.

  7. 7

    Refrigerate the cake for at least four hours or until it is completely firm.

  8. 8

    Lift the cake out of the pan using the parchment paper and slice it into pieces to serve.

💡 Tips

Store your leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. If you like a little extra texture, try topping your slices with some toasted nuts or a pinch of sea salt before serving.
