- a pinch of salt
- 200 g dates
- 50 ml plantbased milk
Berry layer
- 350 g berries fresh or frozen
- juice of 1 lemon

Instructions
- For the hazelnut crust, put rolled oats, hazelnuts and salt in a blender and mix to a crumbly consistency. Then add the dates and milk and mix again until a sticky mixture forms. Press the mixture into a baking tray with parchment paper (15x15cm) and let cool for 30 minutes.
- Mix the agar agar for the berry sauce with the cold water and let that stand for 5 minutes. In the meantime, cook the berries with the lemon juice in a saucepan for 5 minutes and then mix finely. Put it back into the pan and stir in the agar agar mixture. Cook again for 5 minutes while stirring and then add it over the hazelnut crust. Let it cool for an hour.
- Bring the thick part of the coconut milk and the vanilla extract to a boil in a saucepan, then stir in the chopped chocolate andlet it melt.
- Mix the ½ teaspoon agar agar with a little cold water and then combine it with the hot chocolate cream while stirring. Cook everything further for 5 minutes while stirring. Then let it cool slightly.
- Whisk the aquafaba and sanapart with a whisk or in a blender until a white, solid snow is formed. Fold the snow under the cooled chocolate mousse and add it onto the berry layer. Let cool for another hour and enjoy.
