This recipe can be made in stages and compiled later. I will break down the stages I used. This is the most amazing desert ever, inspired by Brian Au.
Stage 1 – The Base
1 Cup Almond Pulp (can get it from making Almond Milk)
4 Tbls Caro/Cocoa Powder
3 Tbls Agave Nectar
Process the pulp, the carob/cacao and agave in a processor until soft and consistent
Stage 2 – The Filling
1 cup water
1 meat from coconut
1 Tbls coconut oil
2 Tbls agave nectar
Blend all the ingredients in vitamix or similar until smooth. Add more water if too thick.
Stage 3 – The Chocolate
½ Cup Pine Nuts or Brazil Nuts
4 Tbls Agave Nectar
3 Tbls Carob/Cacao Powder
½ Cup Water
Blend all the ingredients together and set aside.
Stage 4 – The Cream
½ cup pine nuts
½ cup water
Or
1 cup almonds
1 cup water
And
2 Tbls agave nectar
Blend either the pine nuts or the almonds to create a cream for the top.
Putting It All Together
Place the base either in a glass serving bowl, cup or dish. Add the coconut filling on top of the base and then the chocolate sauce. Add the pine nut or almond cream on top of that and sprinkle with cinnamon for the complete finish.
You could assemble it
in any order you wish actually, but this is the way I enjoyed it. Feel free to experiment. The cinnamon gives it a great finish and really adds to the taste. Hope you enjoy!
Equipment Needed
Food processor, Vitamix or similar blender, Measuring cups, Measuring spoons, Serving bowls or glasses, Cheese cloth for the straining of the almond milk.
