Ingredients

Before we start preparing the Dutch cake without butter, let’s review the necessary ingredients:

• 200 g cornstarch biscuit
• 100g unsalted margarine (we will use margarine as a substitute for butter)
• 200ml fresh cream
• 200 g cream cheese
• 200 g melted semisweet chocolate
• 100g sugar
• 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Now that we have all the ingredients available, let’s go step by step to prepare this delicious Dutch Cake without Butter:

1. Grind the cookies:  Place the cornstarch cookies in a plastic bag and grind to a fine flour. You can also use a food processor for this task.
2. Mix with margarine:  In a bowl, mix the melted unsalted margarine with the cookie flour. Stir well until you obtain a homogeneous mass.
3. Line the mold:  In a mold with a removable bottom, distribute the cookie dough and margarine on the bottom, pressing so that it is compact. Place the mold in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
4. Prepare the filling:  In a bowl, beat the fresh cream until stiff peaks form. Reserve.
5. Mix the other ingredients:  In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, melted dark chocolate, sugar and vanilla essence until the mixture is homogeneous.
6. Add the cream:  Carefully add the whipped cream to the cream cheese and chocolate mixture. Stir gently to maintain the airy texture.
7. Assemble the cake:  Take the mold out of the refrigerator and pour the filling over the cookie base. Spread it evenly.
8. Refrigerate:  Cover the pan with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
9. Serve:  Remove the cake from the pan, cut into slices and serve. You can decorate with chocolate or fruit shavings if you wish.

Now you have a delicious butter-free Dutch cake ready to enjoy. Best of all, this version doesn’t sacrifice the flavor and texture of the original dessert, making it an incredible option for those looking for healthier alternatives.

Additional Tips

• Chocolate variations:  If you prefer a sweeter cake, you can opt for milk chocolate or white chocolate instead of dark chocolate. The choice of chocolate will influence the final flavor of the cake.
• Add fruit:  For an extra touch of freshness, you can add strawberries, raspberries or citrus fruits to your cake. The fruits combine perfectly with the creaminess of the filling.
• Chocolate sauce:  If you want to give your cake even more flavor, prepare a chocolate sauce to serve on top. Simply melt the chocolate with a little cream and sugar in a bain-marie until you get a shiny syrup.
