I literally love having Amy and Katy in the kitchen they are so kean to learn the raw food way and Katy has only recently gone vegetarian two weeks ago and is embracing it all like a super absorbent sponge!
We invented this together yesterday and all agreed it's the best cake we've had all week. It's very very rich so you only need a little slice (sorry Anth you left the day before this creation was born but here's the recipe for you so let us know your verdict).
Serves 8
Line a 6" pan with cling film and dust the bottom with desicated coconut.
Base
1/2 cup almonds/pecans
1/4 cup raisins/dates
1 tbs desicated coconut
1 tbs oats
1tbs melted coconut oil
2tbs cacao powder
Pinch of Himalayan salt
Pulse everything except the oats in the nutribullet then stir in the oats afterwards.
Press evenly into the pan and set in the freezer.
Tip - if you find your fingers are sticking to the mixture while you're trying to form the base just wet your fingers slightly and then press the dough in.
Chocolate topping
4tbs melted coconut oil
1banana
2 tbs raisins
5 dates
1tbs agave nectar/date paste/honey
2 tbs Carob powder
3tbs cacao powder
1tbs almond butter
1tsp coconut sugar (opt for extra sweet)
1/4 cup water
Blend everything into a smooth consistency in the nutribullet/vitamix.
Pour over the base quickly before it starts to set and then put in the fridge.
Decorate with a few goji berries!
We all stood around in the kitchen afterwards licking the appliances in silence mmmm yummy!
