Vegan Chocolate Royal

Vegan Chocolate Royal
For: 6 serv.Difficulty: EasyPreparation: 40 minCooking: 20 min

As promised, we couldn't just leave you with a granny's broth, right? ;-)

To finish off your good resolutions and stock up for the winter, we highly recommend our vegan chocolate royal! It's quite simple: a dacquoise biscuit, a crispy praline, and a chocolate mousse. Plus, you can make it the day before for the next day, so super easy peasy!

We used an 18cm (7-inch) diameter dessert ring. You'll also need an electric whisk and an oven.

  • Prepare the mousse: Whip the soy cream with a mixer for 5 minutes (it's normal for it to remain quite liquid). Melt the chocolate in the microwave. Let it cool for a few minutes and then add it to the cream, mixing well. Allow it to rest in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 356°F.
  • Prepare the dacquoise: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Whisk the aquafaba until stiff peaks form using an electric mixer. Mix the almond flour, flour, powdered sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add the whipped aquafaba, folding it in gently to form a dough. Finally, add the oil and mix again. Pour into an 18 cm diameter mold and bake for 13 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the mixture evenly onto the paper. Bake for 12 minutes. Remove the baking sheet and carefully cut out a large circle (the size of your dessert ring).
  • Prepare the crispy praline: Toast the almonds and hazelnuts in the oven for 8 minutes at 350°F. Pour the sugar into a saucepan and caramelize it dry, without utensils (tilt the saucepan occasionally so that all the sugar turns into caramel). Add the almonds and hazelnuts and mix well off the heat. Pour onto parchment paper to cool down.
  • As soon as the caramel has hardened, blend the praline in a food processor and add the hazelnut oil to obtain a creamy praline. Add the melted chocolate and slightly crushed corn flakes.
  • Assembly: Place your round of dacquoise biscuit at the bottom of your dessert ring. Cover with crispy praline (about 0.5 to 1 cm in thickness). Finish by adding the chocolate mousse.
  • Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours (you can also let it sit overnight). Unmold your dessert and it's ready :)
