- 2/3 Cup Water
- 2 tbsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 tbsp Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/2 Cup Organic, Fairtrade Espresso Cooled
Dipping Liquid:
- 2 Cups Organic Fairtrade Coffee Cooled
- ¼ Cup Maple Syrup
Base Cream:

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the cake ingredients and spread thinly onto two parchment-lined baking trays. Bake for 20 minutes and allow to cool.
- In another large mixing bowl, whisk together all of the “base cream” ingredients until smooth, ensuring each of the ingredients is room temperature. In case the mixture separates, simply heat over a double boiler until it comes together.
- Divide the “base cream” in half and add Lucuma to one half and cacao powder to the other. Mix well and refrigerate for several hours until fully set.
- To assemble, cut each of the thin cake layers in half, forming 4 total cake layers.
- Dip each of the cake layers into “dipping liquid” right before layering.
- Divide both dark cream and light cream into half and set aside.
- In a rectangular glass baking dish start the assembly with a cake layer, followed by dark cream, another cake layer and topped with light cream. Continue layering until all ingredients are used up and top with chocolate chips.
- Allow to cool for at least an hour before cutting.
