Whether you’re making them for a party or just as a special treat for yourself, they’re sure to be a hit. So, grab your ingredients, and let’s get started on these tasty rolls!
Ingredients:
- Coconut Flakes: 80g (approximately 1 cup)
- Milk: 500ml
- Sugar: 100g (about 1/2 cup)
- Vanilla Sugar: 10g
- Flour: 100g (roughly 2/3 cup)
- Cocoa Powder: 1 tablespoon
- Butter: 30g
- Dark Chocolate: 50g
- Heavy Cream: 150ml (33-36% fat)
- Powdered Sugar: 1 tablespoon
- Pistachio Crumbs for garnish
Instructions:
- Prepare the Base:
- In a medium-sized cooking pot, combine the milk, sugar, vanilla sugar, flour, and cocoa powder. Heat the mixture on medium, stirring all the time, until it becomes thick like a smooth paste.
- Remove the pot from the heat. Add the butter and dark chocolate to the hot mixture, stirring until both are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the mixture into a 20×30 cm baking form lined with parchment paper, spreading it evenly. Let it cool down naturally until it reaches room temperature.
- Chill:
- Once cooled, transfer the form to the refrigerator. Let it set for several hours, or until it hardens sufficiently to be rolled or cut easily.
- Whipped Cream Topping:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and powdered sugar. Beat until the mixture is thick and holds peaks.
- Assembly:
- Take out the chilled chocolate mixture from the refrigerator. Spread the whipped cream evenly over the top.
- Carefully roll the chocolate base into a log or cut into equal pieces, about 1.5 to 2 cm wide, depending on your preference.
- Final Touch:
- Sprinkle the rolls or pieces with pistachio crumbs for a nutty crunch and an elegant finish.
- Serve:
- Place the rolls back in the fridge for a few more hours to ensure they are fully set and the flavors meld beautifully.
- Serve chilled for a refreshing and decadent treat.
