Double chocolate and coconut cake

Crunchy crust, full filled, chocolate ganache and coconut cream make this cake the best that I tried in my 19 years as a dessert addict!!!

The base is my favorite, super simple, with only 4 ingredients, based on oats, and very tasty!

The creamy filling, with a consistency of mousse, is suuuuper rich, made with sweet potato and peanut butter, is a no bake filling, so it is quick to make. And finally a layer of creamy ganache and coconut cream to decorate and give a fresh/fruity touch, a true delight.

Do you dare to try the recipe? You will not regret! If the tests tell me, send me an email or comment in the blog post how it came out, if you liked it, or that you would change it, I would love to listen to the advice of those who try my recipes! And if you share a photo on your Instagram or stories tag me like @gaspic_healthyberry so I can see it and I’ll share you in my stories!
