Moringa Christmas Wreath
Moringa is one of my favorite ingredients used in the Pastry and Desserts I bake. The health benefits of mooring are numerous and it can be taken in powder form, seeds or even the dried leaves. The mooring powder is often revered to as the African matcha, rich in antioxidants and green-yellowish in color the powder can be added to smoothies, drank as tea or even enriching foods.
The mooring wreath though no visible in the finished wreath gives the dough a tangy but perfect Christmas flavor. Combined with the chocolate and nut filling it is the perfect addition to your Christmas dinner. The recipe is relatively simple and can be made quickly and easily.

Instructions
Mix all the Ingredients for the Dough and let the Dough sit in the fridge for about 2 hours.
In the meantime mix all the ingredients for the Chocolate filling and melt the Chocolate in a water bath.
Now roll out the dough 3 - 4 cm thick. Make sure the dough is not too thin.
Spread the chocolate filling on the dough and roll the dough like a long log and wrap it into foil and refrigerate the filled dough once again for 2 hours.
Once the dough is firm again take it out of the foil and cut it down the middle. Twist both long logs around each other and form a wreath.
Bake the wreath for 45 Minutes at 180Β°C.
