Step 1

Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, keeping the skin on. Prick them a few times.

Step 2

Roast whole at 200°C for 45–60 minutes, until completely soft and starting to caramelise.

Step 3

Let them cool slightly, then weigh 380 g of the roasted potato if you want the recipe to be particularly consistent. Blend with the skin until smooth.

Step 4

Add the egg, cornstarch, cocoa and sweetener. Blend until completely smooth.

Step 5

Mix in the ¾ tsp baking powder last.

Step 6

Spread into a small lined baking dish — approximately 15 × 15 cm would be ideal for this quantity.

Step 7

Bake at 180°C for about 25–30 minutes. You want the middle set but still moist.

Step 8

Cool completely, then refrigerate before cutting.
