I was looking for a dairy-free cake, so, I went to bbc.goodfood.com (one of my fav sites to search for awesome recipes) and I came into this lovely cake. And it turned out perfect, so, I hardly recommend you to make it. You can make the filling, but as I had some Almond milk chocolate pudding (Click here to see the recipe, or see below) in the refrigerator, I used it (so, completely dairy free)
I’ll show you two ways to serve this cake: the first one is the one above (covered with my almond chocolate pudding)
The second one (you can se it below) it's the one I topped with thick greek yogurt (no dairy free but still delicious and healthy)
Almond Cocoa pudding
Ingredientes: 6 pax.
700 ml milk. Any: Regular one, lactose free, almond milk, coconut milk...
100 gr. sugar
2 Tbsp corn flour
2 Tbsp cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
2 gelatin sheets
90 gr. dark chocolate (I use 70%, but feel free to use from 52%)
1 tsp vanilla Bourbon paste
Method:
- Place gelatin sheets in cold water until soft.
- In a big bowl mix corn flour, cocoa powder, sugar, salt.
- Add 100 ml of cold milk (from the 700ml) and whisk until well combined. We don’t want any lump here.
- Heat up the milk in a pan with the vanilla paste. Give it to a boil.
- Once it’s boiling, take it off the heat and pour some into the cold mixture. Whisk until all mixed and dissolved. Bring all the flour and cocoa mixture into the boiling milk pan.Low down the temperature to a medium heat and keep whisking (it prevents the pudding from creating lumps) until it comes to a boil once again.
- Take to off the heat and add the chopped chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is dissolved.
- Let it cool down a bit and add the gelatin sheets (don’t add them when boiling, because the gelatin collapsed/ “died” at boiling temperature)
- Don’t stop whisking until the temperature goes down (it has to be warm)
- Pour the chocolate mixture into your ramekins or wherever you want to serve it (I also use it to fill cakes)
- Cover with plastic wrap. Keep it in the refrigerator until cool (You’ll see that it will be quite thick)
- The texture is between a caramel pudding and a chocolate custard. It’s so delicate and delicious!
The second one (you can se it below) it's the one I topped with thick greek yogurt (no dairy free but still delicious and healthy)

They call it Moka cake. And it’s worth making it. I promise you.

To complete this amazing cake, I topped the cake with the chocolate pudding (I whisk it just a little to reach that runny texture (I LOVE!) and with thick Greek yogurt (as you can see below)
