Chocolate and strawberry cake 🍓🍫✨

▫️PARA LA BASE▫️ Crush 130g. of nuts (I used 80g. of cashews and 50g. of pistachios) with 50g. of oat flakes (if you don't have oat flakes you can use ground oats or similar), 100g. of pitted dates and 2 tablespoons of pure cocoa powder. Then add 50g. of melted coconut oil and mix everything well so that it is a consistent paste (be careful that it is difficult to crush everything well, you can add a little milk to help it soften but it does not have to be too wet) which will be the base of our cake. Pour the dough into the mold and put it in the freezer to cool a little before pouring the layer of strawberries🔻Note: the quantities really depend on the mold where you are going to make the cake, I used a circular mold of 25cm in diameter.

▫️PARA THE LAYER OF FRESA▫️Poner soak 7-8 sheets of gelatine (or similar) for 10/15 Mins. Crush 450g. of strawberries together with 80g. of dates and the juice of half a lemon (note that if you want it to be sweeter you can add more dates or not add the lemon but the strawberry will reduce the excess of sweetness to the chocolate for a more acid and fruity touch that combines perfectly). Once it has been beaten well so that it is completely liquid, pour it into a small saucepan over medium-low heat and stirring constantly. When it boils, add the gelatin sheets (already drained) and continue stirring with a whisk so that there are no lumps until it melts. Then remove from the heat and add 250g. of cream cheese spread (or mascarpone or something similar) also add 1 yogurt and stir everything well. Let it cool a little and pour it into the mold. Now let it cool in the freezer for 4 hours (I left it about 7 hours because it was at night) so that it sets ✔️

▫️ FOR THE CHOCOLATE LAYER ▫️ Leave 4-5 sheets of gelatine to soak for 10/15 minutes. Crush 80g. of dates together with 1 glass of conventional milk (200g.) or with the drink of your choice. On the other hand, in a small saucepan we are going to melt the 100g. of 85% chocolate bar in a bain-marie with 50g. of coconut oil. Add the previous mixture of dates and stir with a whisk over medium heat (as in the previous process of the strawberries). When it starts to boil, add the drained gelatin sheets until they break up and stir well so that there are no lumps. Remove from the heat, add the 200gr. of cheese and stir well. Note: the texture this time will not be as liquid as the strawberry layer and I would recommend adding a little milk according to its consistency (not too liquid or too thick). Let it cool a little and pour it into the mold with the strawberry layer already curdled and frozen and wait about 2 hours or until you see that it has curdled and can be served ✔️
