Healthy Chocolate Cake...Yes I said Healthy...it's actually tastes amazing...Yes Really..LOL

This is raw Vegan cake so it’s Wheat Free, Gluten Free, Egg Free, Dairy Free & Sugar Free(no added sugar but contains healthy sweetner from dates)

Now Ingredients:
Base
3.5 cups Walnuts (raw not the roasted salted)
3.5 cups Cashews (raw not the roasted salted)
2 cups Dates (ordinary dried no added sugar)
1 Tbsp Vanilla paste or extract (not essence)
6 Tbsp Coconut Oil (This is an oil that is very good for you)
24 Tbsp Cocoa
1Tbsp of the draind juice from the dates (further down you’ll see where this comes from)
Liquid Stevia to taste aprox 1/2tsp (Stevia is a natural sweetner you will find at health store)

Frosting
6 large Avocados (I use Hass)
8Tbsp Coconut Oil
1 cup Dates
16 Tbsp Cocoa
Liquid Stevia to taste aprox 1/4 -1/2 tsp

Method:
Soak your nuts in cold water overnight this removes the natural chemicals found on the nuts that stop them from germinating, they are then better for you also helps to soften
Soak both batches of dates in warm water overnight to soften

Drain all ingredients well rinse nuts under a little cold water

Place the walnuts into the food processor with 1 cup of the drained nuts and puree,

remove place in bowl then process the cashews with the remaining 1 cup dates

add the remaining ingredients for the base in with the pureed cashew mix and blend well

remove and mix into the walnut mix

grease a loose bottom cake pan with a little coconut oil then press mix into pan

FROSTING:
Now in a clean food processor add the avocado flesh, the drained soaked 1 cup dates

and puree add the remaining ingredients & mix well

remove from processor and strain through a sieve, I use a spatula to press it through (this just removes any little bits of date skin)

now spread over base

and chill for 2-3 hours slice with a hot knife, cake is best kept in the fridge this make a 8’ wide by 4" high cake you can’t eat alot as it’s very rich but tastes yummy and with zero guilt YAY… I hope you enjoy
