Raw chocolate layer cake

 

Ingredients:

 

200g mixed nuts (I use Nuts Royal from Lidl)

150g dried apricots

150g prunes

1 ripe avocado

2 tsp raw honey

2 tsp cocoa powder

Pinch of sea salt if desired

Fruit of your choice

 

Method:

1. Soak the mixed nuts in water for 2-3 hours or overnight.
2. Cut the apricots in halves and soak in water for 10-15mins to soften up more.
3. Drain the mixed nuts and then whizz in a bowl with a hand blender – or in a food processor.
4. Deseed the prunes and chop them up and add to the whizzed up nuts. Add pinch of sea salt if desired.
5. Whizz the prunes with the nuts until a sticky mixture forms for the base.
6. Plate the mixture onto a plate and shape into the bottom layer of the cake. Pop into the freezer for 10-15 mins to set.
7. De-stone and peel the avocado and chop up. Whizz in a clean bowl with a hand blender or the cleaned food processor.
8. Drain the apricots, add to the avocado and whizz once more until smooth.
9. Add 2 heaped tsp of cocoa powder and honey and mix (or add enough to your taste to make it chocolaty and sweet how you want it).
10. Spread this filling over the bottom layer of the cake.
11. Add you favourite fruit sliced on top of the cake. I rather like banana and kiwi!
