My dear foodies,

If you are a fan of chocolate, sure this recipe is for you, and you will enjoy it a lot, today we will prepare a rich peanut cream with cocoa, as it is high in fat I recommend accompanying fruits or a rich toast of whole wheat bread and get a more complete meal.

The base of this delicious cream will be prepared with pure cocoa, coconut milk and to sweeten a little agave syrup. To make our meals or desserts healthier I recommend you to sweeten with agave syrup instead of white sugar, as agave syrup does not escape from having a glycemic index, but this is very low, the same should not be abused.
If we want a good quality in our cream, we must choose to buy organic ingredients, these are a little more expensive, but I think it's worth it, especially for the difference in flavor.

The most common is to consume the creams of nuts spread on bread, but the reality is that they give for much more. For example, you can cut an apple into thin slices and spread this cream between two slices. You can also make a vegetable milk shake by adding a generous spoonful of cream before whipping. And for the greedy, you can use peanut butter with cocoa as a filling for a sponge cake or, why not, vegan muffins.
