This Easy Vegan Jaffa Cake Dessert is simply perfect for when you like easy and hassle free - and with only 5 ingredients it's likely you have everything you need already to hand.
Ingredients & Notes
For the ingredients I have used:
- oat milk - homemade or store-bought
- vegan chocolate spread - I used Mr Organic Chocolate & Hazelnut Spread
- raw cocoa powder
- orange juice - fresh or store-bought, make sure it's smooth!
- Vegeset - to ensure your pudding sets in the right time.
The oat milk creates a perfectly creamy base for this easy vegan jaffa cake dessert - and together with your favourite chocolate spread or chocolate it creates a deliciously smooth dessert.
Instructions (Step-by-Step)
- For the Jaffa Cake dessert base, simply heat the oat milk in a medium size saucepan on the stovetop.
- Once beginning to steam add the chocolate spread or chocolate pieces and continuously whisk until the chocolate is melted and perfectly incorporated with the oat milk.
- Stir in the raw cacao powder and orange juice last, then add in ½ teaspoon of Vegeset and stir until combined.
- Continue stirring regularly, turn up the heat until boiling, then instantly remove from the stovetop and pour the chocolate-y mixture into small, round bowls.
- Set the bowls into the fridge for at least half an hour, then gently flip them upside down onto a serving plate and gently tap the bottom until the Jaffa Cake pudding moves out of the bowl and onto your dessert plate.
Decorating & Serving
To decorate I have used orange zest, chocolate sauce and a slice of orange on the top - to give it that extra special something!
