This is something you have to try to believe! Containing only raw ingredients and absolutely no dairy, soy or gluten – this is a dessert that can be enjoyed by nearly everyone (even those who are extremely restricted by their diets). Let me know what you think!
*Not my own recipe but I’m not sure where it’s from originally. If you know I would love to give credit where credit is due!*
Raw Chocolate Torte
- 2 c pecans (or pretty much any other nut combo you can think of)
- 8-10 medjool dates – pitted
- 1 T coconut oil
- 1 T cinnamon
- 1 pinch ground cardamom
In a food processor, grind the nuts until they are fairly well blended. Add the rest of the crust ingredients and process until well combined. Press into a deep dish pie plate and refrigerate while you make the filling.
Filling:
- 1 c raw cashew butter
- 1 small avocado (yes – I said avocado)
- 1/2 c + 2 T raw cocoa powder
- 1/2 c agave nectar
- 1/2 c melted coconut butter
- 1/4 c water
- 1 T vanilla
Rinse out the food processor. In the food processor, blend all filling ingredients until smooth. Scrape filling into crust and chill for 3-4 hours.
This is torte great on its own or served with berries! Enjoy!
