STUFF YOU NEED
FOR THE BASE
- 1 1//2 cups almonds
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 2 tbs raw cacao
- 2 tbs coconut oil
- 1 tbs xylitol or erythritol
- 1 tsp 100% vanilla extract
FOR THE CHOCOLATE FILLING
- 1 1/2 cup raw cashews soaked in water overnight, then drained
- 1 cup coconut milk canned
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 1 tsp 100% vanilla extract
- 4 tbs xylitol or erythritol
- 2 tbs raw cacao powder
FOR THE CARAMEL SWIRL
- 1 1/2 cup dates soaked in boiling water for 10 mins then drained
- 1/4 cup coconut milk canned
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
FOR THE CHOC TOPPING
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1/2 cup raw cacao powder
- 1 tbs xylitol or erythritol
NOW WHAT
- Line a 24 cm (10 inch) spring form cake tin with baking paper.
FOR THE BASE
- Place all the base ingredients in to a food processor or blender. Whiz until well combined, it will become almost a smooth butter. Yum!
- Press the mix in to the prepared tin to cover the entire base, ensure it is even.
- Set aside.
FOR THE CHOCOLATE FILLING
- Using the food processor (don't worry about washing it!) place all the filling ingredients and whiz until completely smooth (it will take around 5 minutes).
- Pour this delicious mixture over the top of the base and place into the freezer for about 20 minutes.
FOR THE CARAMEL SWIRL
- Using the food processor (again, don't worry about washing it) add all the ingredients and whiz until completely thick and smooth.
- Pour the caramel on top of the chocolate filling and use a spoon to lightly swirl the two fillings together.
- Place into the freezer.
FOR THE CHOC TOPPING
- Using the food processor (again, don't worry about washing it) add all the choc topping ingredients and whiz until completely smooth. The friction from the blending will melt the ingredients together nicely.
- Take the cake out of the freezer and pour the choc topping on top.
- Place into the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Gently release the springform and slice with a hot knife, we actually cut ours into squares.
- Enjoy!
