Healthier dough parfaits 13-08-2016

A cup of hot tea at night usually does the trick. But sometimes. Sometimes I need something dessert-like. And I wanted something slightly better for me that I could turn to when these crazy cravings kick in.

Ingredients:

For the dough:
½ cup raw walnuts halves
½ cup raw cashews
5 large medjool dates
¼ cup chopped dark chocolate or chocolate chips
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of sea salt
For the whipped cream:
1 (13.5 ounce) can full fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
2 teaspoons honey
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
For topping:
coconut flakes, lightly toasted
chopped dark chocolate

Instructions:

1/ To make the dough - add the walnuts and cashews to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the nuts are finely chopped (but don't go so far that they start to turn into a paste). Add in the dates, chocolate, vanilla extract and salt. Continue to pulse until the dates are finely chopped and the mixture starts to come together in clumps. Set aside.

2/ To make the whipped cream - place a medium mixing bowl in the freezer for 5 minutes to chill. Take the can of chilled coconut milk and turn it upside down. Open the can and pour out the liquid (you don't need it for this recipe but you can use it in smoothies, etc.). Scoop the hardened coconut cream into the chilled mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, whip the cream until fluffy and smooth. Add in the honey and vanilla extract and beat again until incorporated. Taste and add additional honey if needed.

3/ To assemble - take some of the dough mixture and sort of crumble it into the bottom of a small jar or glass. Spoon on some of the whipped cream and then sprinkle with some of the coconut flakes and chopped dark chocolate. Repeat this process one more time. Serve immediately or you can keep in the refrigerator until ready to eat (the whipped cream will harden / become more mousse-like a bit but it's still delicious!).
