Pavê

Pavê is a delightful Brazilian dessert that layers creamy filling and chocolate biscuits, creating a rich and indulgent treat. This kosher version ensures everyone can enjoy its luscious flavors without compromising dietary restrictions.

Ingredients

• Chocolate biscuits - 100 grams
• Sweetened condensed coconut milk - 200 ml
• Unsweetened cocoa powder - 2 tablespoons
• Coconut cream - 100 ml
• Powdered sugar - 2 tablespoons
• Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• Dark chocolate (70% cocoa) - 30 grams, grated
• Coconut flakes - 2 tablespoons (for garnish)

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, combine the sweetened condensed coconut milk, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Whisk until smooth and well incorporated.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened cocoa powder with a little water to create a paste. Gradually add this to the coconut mixture, stirring until fully combined.
3. Dip the chocolate biscuits quickly in water (or coconut milk) to soften them slightly, then layer them in a small serving dish.
4. Spread a layer of the coconut cream mixture over the biscuits, then sprinkle some grated dark chocolate on top.
5. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of the cream mixture on top.
6. Refrigerate the pavê for at least 2 hours to set. Before serving, garnish with coconut flakes and additional grated chocolate.
