40g purple sweet potato flakes
100g water
30g granulated sugar

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is lower in saturated fat and adds a different flavor.

cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

1

Melt the chocolate using a double boiler.

2

Add cornflakes to the melted chocolate and mix while crushing them.

3

Spread half of the mixture onto two crackers using a fork to flatten.

4

Place another cracker on top, pressing lightly. Push any excess chocolate back in with the back of a fork and refrigerate for 5 minutes.

5

Cut the crackers in half vertically using a serrated knife, moving the blade back and forth gently to avoid breaking.

6

Chill 100g of heavy cream in ice water and whip it to soft peaks.

7

Transfer the whipped cream into a piping bag fitted with a round tip and pipe a line from end to end on the center of the cracker base.

8

If the cracker comes apart, pipe a little cream onto the chocolate part to glue it back together.

9

Mix purple sweet potato flakes with water, then add granulated sugar, room temperature butter, and 15g of heavy cream, mixing gently to avoid overmixing.

10

Fill a piping bag fitted with a Mont Blanc tip with the purple sweet potato cream and pipe it in a circular motion over the whipped cream.

11

Dust with powdered sugar using a strainer to finish.
