Equipment

Ingredients

Crust

8 Dates soaked
1 cup Coconut flakes
8 oz Almonds without skin
3 tbsp Raw cacao or regular cacao
2 tbsp Water from soaked dates
pinch Salt

Filling

3 cups Cashews soaked for 3 hours in cold water
2 cups Strawberries
1/2 cup Cacao butter melted (on low heat)
3 tbsp Coconut oil melted (on low heat)
2 tbsp Lemon juice
1 cup Water or more if needed
2 tbsp Vanilla extract
1/2 cup Maple syrup
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Beet powder optional for color

Instructions

Prepare the crust: Soak the dates for 2 -3 hours (keep the water). Blend the almonds first in a food processor. Then add coconut flakes and soaked dates. Pulse it again and add raw cacao until the mixture sticks together. If the mixture is too dry, add some water from the soaked dates. When the crust is ready, press the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan lined with parchment paper and refrigerate while preparing the filling.
Make the filling: In a high-speed blender, combine soaked cashews, water, fresh strawberries, melted cacao butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, maple syrup, a pinch of salt and lemon juice. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. You can add a beet powder if you want to add color. If the filling is too thick and doesn't want to blend, you can add more water gradually. You do not want this to runny either. The filling should be relatively thick but must also come out of the blender easily.
Assemble: Pour the filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight for the best results.
Top & Serve: Garnish with fresh berries, strawberry sauce, or shredded coconut. Slice and enjoy this delicious dessert!
