    Guilt-free desserts make me feel so good! They taste good, are made with wholesome, nutrient-rich ingredients, don't give me stomach cramps or other sugar-loaded nauseating feelings and they make my brain and soul happy 🙂

    This is a super easy and fast recipe you can make to impress guests or when you simply want a quick and light dessert.

    Made with rich 80% dark chocolate, coconut cream, chopped hazelnuts and fresh strawberries. Together these ingredients create a deliciously creamy, chocolaty, light and crunchy dessert 😉
