Pavê de Chocolate Branco

Pavê de Chocolate Branco is a delightful Brazilian dessert that layers creamy white chocolate with crunchy biscuits, creating a perfect balance of textures and flavors. This healthy version utilizes natural sweeteners and Greek yogurt to lighten the classic treat without sacrificing taste.

Ingredients

• White chocolate - 100 grams
• Greek yogurt - 200 grams
• Honey - 2 tablespoons
• Unsweetened almond milk - 100 ml
• Whole grain digestive biscuits - 6 pieces
• Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• Cocoa powder - 1 tablespoon (for dusting)

Steps

1. In a small saucepan, gently melt the white chocolate over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
3. Add the melted white chocolate to the yogurt mixture and stir until smooth and fully incorporated.
4. In a shallow dish, pour the almond milk. Quickly dip each biscuit into the almond milk, ensuring they are moistened but not soggy.
5. In two serving glasses, start layering by placing a layer of dipped biscuits at the bottom, followed by a layer of the white chocolate mixture. Repeat the layers until the glasses are filled, finishing with the white chocolate mixture on top.
6. Dust the top layer with cocoa powder for a decorative finish.
7. Refrigerate the pavê for at least 2 hours before serving to allow it to set.
