ByHannah Peterson

✨ Rich, Creamy & Crowd-Pleasing

This dessert looks like a dreamy layered treat—a chocolatey base, silky vanilla cream center, and glossy chocolate topping. The version in your image is not vegan, but here’s how to make a fully vegan version that tastes just as indulgent.

🛒 Ingredients

🍪 Chocolate Base

  • 1 ½ cups crushed chocolate cookies (vegan)
  • ⅓ cup melted coconut oil

🍦 Vanilla Cream Layer

  • 1 cup raw cashews (soaked)
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

🍫 Chocolate Topping

  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
  • ½ cup coconut cream

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Make the Base

Mix crushed cookies + coconut oil.
Press into a pan and chill for 20 minutes.

2️⃣ Blend the Cream Layer

Blend everything until super smooth.
Pour over base and refrigerate 2–3 hours until set.

3️⃣ Chocolate Layer

Heat coconut cream and pour over chocolate chips.
Stir until smooth → pour on top.

4️⃣ Chill Again

Refrigerate 1–2 hours until firm.

5️⃣ Slice & Serve

Cut into bars and enjoy that perfect creamy + chocolate combo 🤤

💡 Tips

⭐ Use full-fat coconut cream for best texture
⭐ Let layers set fully before adding the next
⭐ Freeze 20 minutes before slicing for clean cuts

That thick, creamy middle layer in your image is usually made with cream cheese/eggs—but this vegan version nails the same texture using cashews + coconut cream.
