Ingredients

Sponge

  • 110 g flour
  • 80 g sugar
  • 20 g brown sugar
  • 25 g cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • pinch of salt
  • 45 g coconut oil
  • 120 g almond milk or any other plant milk
  • 1/2 tsp vinegar or lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Chocolate mousse

  • 275 g chocolate
  • 700 g silken tofu
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • +200 g strawberries chopped

Decoration

  • a few strawberries

Instructions

Sponge

  • Preheat the oven to 180℃. Line a round 20 cm baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Mix together the flour, sugars, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Melt the coconut oil. Add the milk and vanilla extract to the coconut oil, mix, then add everything to the dry ingredients (flour and co.) and stir until everything is combined.
  • Bake for about 18-20 min, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Mousse

  • Melt the chocolate over a double boiler and set aside. Put the silken tofu in a bowl and mix it with an immersion blender until it's smooth and has no lumps. You could also try it with a food processor. Then mix in the melted chocolate and the vanilla extract.

Assemble

  • Leave the sponge in the pan, then distribute the chopped strawberries over the cooled sponge. Pour the mousse over the strawberries and smooth out the top. Put it in the fridge for a few hours (at least 2) to set. Remove from the pan and decorate with strawberries. Tada! Enjoy ^^.
