Yogurt and Chocolate Dessert a fresh and delicious treat.
If you love spoon desserts, don’t miss the collection 8 spoon desserts.
I confess that my favorite is the lotus dessert and the dessert with puff pastries and mascarpone cream. These are perfect desserts for when you’re craving a last-minute sweet: simple to prepare but super tasty. This dessert is a perfect combination of yogurt, cream, and chocolate ganache, ideal to serve at the end of a meal. I assembled the dessert with cookies soaked in coffee for a fragrant touch. The recipe is really simple, and the video will guide you step by step in the preparation.
