Chocolate gingerbread

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Prepare a baking tray (a deep one) 20 x 20 cm.
  • Whisk flour, icing sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon powder, nutmeg, and ginger powder in a bowl.
  • Add eggs, oil, milk, and strawberry purée. Mix well until everything is well combined without lumps. Pour the batter into a baking tray and bake for 25-30 minutes. Take the chocolate gingerbread out of the oven and let cool completely. If the top of the gingerbread is not even, chop off the top.

Chocolate ganache

  • Melt chocolate over boiling water. In a small pot heat up a whipping cream. Whisk them together with a fork until the chocolate gets really thick. Pour the lukewarm chocolate ganache over the top.
  • When the ganache gets a little thick, not completely cool, melt the Nutwhey salted caramel in a bowl. Make sure it's cool before making ghosts.
  • Take a teaspoon half-full of Nutwhey salted caramel and make a ghost. Let the chocolate gingerbread cool completely.
