serves 1 cake
  • 4 Medjool dates, chopped

Cooking mode
  1. In a small pan, add the dates, soya milk, chocolate and almond butter. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is shiny.
  2. Remove from the heat, cover and set aside for 2 minutes to soften the dates.
  3. Transfer to a food processor and add the cocoa powder, vanilla extract and salt. Process for a few minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture is shiny and smooth. Add more soya milk if needed, 1 tsp at a time, until smooth and spreadable.
  4. Transfer to the fridge for 5–10 minutes to thicken slightly.
