Chocolate! Vanilla! Tartlets! Perfect combination. I’ve always wanted to do a vegan ‘cheese cake’ variation, or better still, one with a chocolate dough, similar to ‘Russischer Zupfkuchen’ (= ‘Russian twitch cake’ – does this exist outside Germany? ; )). Anyway, I came up with these sweethearts.
Actually, when I look at this, there wasn’t much “cooking” involved, as they were all raw recipes that were simply warmed a little. But anyway, let’s start from the beginning: A friend, Therese, and I decided to arrange a vegan-cooking-&-eating-day taking the time to research recipes, buying all the fresh ingredients together, before cooking, preparing and decorating. Then, of course, eating all we made!
After being inspired by our favourite blogs, it was clear: Gazpacho (cold Spanish vegetable soup, made after Vegan Guerilla’s recipe) as a starter, zucchini-lasagna-rolls (from this (r)awesome blog) as a main, and healthy vegan chocolate lava cakes (adapted from the lovely Gluten-free Vegan Girl) it is!
So first we went shopping…
This is my favourite cake recipe – an easy, gooey chocolate cake that is ready in half an hour and takes you straight to chocolate heaven. I’ve played around a bit to figure out the perfect ratio and extra ingredients. The following version is the one I prefer and enjoy most.
