Instructions

  • In another bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the Greek yogurt, almond butter, honey, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  • Fold in the dark chocolate chips.
  • Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool.

Prepare the frosting:

  • Scoop the thick part of the coconut cream from the can of coconut milk.
  • In a small bowl, combine the coconut cream, cocoa powder, honey, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  • Once the loaf is completely cool, spread the frosting over the top.
  • Chop the hazelnuts and sprinkle them over the frosted loaf.
  • Slice and enjoy your healthy Ferrero Rocher chocolate loaf!
