Sweet Potato cakes are a dessert that has been known for generations. It is based on cookie dough and cocoa. The mass is quite dense and tender.

Most often, cocoa is sprinkled on top of the brownies. But you can also use coconut flakes. White will look very aesthetically pleasing on brown dough. It is also very tasty.

The idea of making sweet potato cakes was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Iryna Dimitrova (iriska_dimitrova).
