Paneer in chocolate, beetroot fudge, avocado coffee cream and apple pastilla, these strange desserts look odd, taste incredible, and surprise every bite- would you dare try them?
Frozen Chocolate Delight With Paneer: Paneer in dessert raises eyebrows, but this frozen chocolate delight changes minds fast. The ingredients include fresh paneer, cocoa powder, dates or honey, and a little milk. Crumble the paneer and blend it with cocoa, sweetener, and milk until completely smooth. Pour the mixture into a tray or bowl and freeze for a few hours, stirring once midway for a creamier texture. Once set, scoop and serve.(Image: Instagram)Sweet Potato Brownie: Sweet potato brownies sound strange until you taste them. The ingredients are boiled sweet potatoes, cocoa powder, nut butter, and a natural sweetener like maple syrup or dates. Mash the boiled sweet potatoes until smooth. Mix in cocoa powder, nut butter, and sweetener to form a thick batter. Spread it into a lined tray and bake until set but fudgy in the centre. Cool before slicing.

You need ripe avocados, brewed coffee, cocoa powder, and honey or dates. Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender, add cooled coffee, cocoa powder, and sweetener. Blend until silky smooth. Chill before serving. The avocado provides richness, while coffee adds a subtle bitterness that balances the sweetness.

The ingredients include cooked beetroot, dark chocolate or cocoa powder, dates, and a little butter or coconut oil. Blend cooked beetroot with dates until smooth. Melt dark chocolate with butter and mix it into the beetroot blend. Spread the mixture into a tray and refrigerate until firm. Slice into squares once set. The beetroot adds colour, moisture, and subtle sweetness without an earthy aftertaste.

Let it cool to room temperature, then whip for about 20 minutes until the mixture turns white and triples in volume. Transfer to a lined mould, cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours until set. Then cut into cubes and you will have fluffy marshmallow-like sweet. (Image: Instagram)
