Method
- Line a 30 x 20cm rectangular tin with nonstick baking paper. Put the oats in a food processor and blitz until fine. Add the ground almonds, pitted dates, vanilla extract, 75g cocoa powder and 150ml cold water and blitz again until well combined.
- Spoon into the lined tin and press down with the back of a spoon until flat and even. Chill for 10 mins.
- Meanwhile, mix the yogurt with the remaining cocoa powder in a bowl.
- Take the tin out of the fridge and transfer the dough on the baking paper to a work surface. Spread with the chocolate yogurt, leaving a 2cm border around the edge. Use the baking paper to gently roll up the roulade, starting from one of the short ends, taking care not to squeeze out the filling.
- Put on a serving plate, seal-side down. Spoon over the melted chocolate, allowing it to drip down the sides, then scatter with the chopped almonds and cranberries. Store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
