Indulge in this Sweet Potato Chocolate Delight: A Memorable Dessert

August 18, 2025 Written by Abigail

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and delightful dessert recipe that’s perfect for any time of year. This dish combines unexpected flavors and textures to create a truly memorable treat that is sure to impress your family and friends.

To start, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 200g of sweet potato, peeled and diced
– 100g of dark chocolate, chopped
– 50g of coconut milk
– 50g of maple syrup
– 1 tsp of ground cinnamon
– A pinch of sea salt
– 50g of chopped pecans
– 50g of shredded coconut

For this recipe, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • saucepan
  • baking sheet
  • mixing bowl
  • wooden spoon

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the diced sweet potato on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until tender. In a saucepan, heat the coconut milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt over low heat until well combined.

Once the sweet potato is cooked, transfer it to a mixing bowl and mash it with a fork. Pour the warm coconut milk mixture over the mashed sweet potato and stir until smooth. Add the chopped chocolate and mix until melted and fully incorporated.

Next, fold in the chopped pecans and shredded coconut until evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Spoon the mixture into individual serving dishes or ramekins and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

When ready to serve, garnish with additional shredded coconut and pecans for a beautiful presentation. This dessert can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 600g, with 4 servings at 150g each. One serving of this delectable dessert is around 350 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a little sea salt on top just before serving to enhance the flavors and add a touch of sophistication to the dish.

I hope you give this unique sweet potato and chocolate dessert a try. Feel free to get creative and add your own twist by incorporating different nuts or spices. Enjoy!
