Raw Vegan Dessert Ideas

What would you do ooouh for a Raw Vegan Carrot and Date Truffle! Honestly anything to curve this craving for a double fudge chocolate chip pound cake. I love desserts, especially if they are moist and ooey gooey! That’s exactly what this Raw Vegan Dessert delivers. Its definitely one of my go to favorites when I’m doing a raw vegan challenge. The first time I made this dessert was a total experiment. I was practicing for a Raw Vegan farm to skin cook off I had entered and one of the ingredients I had feature was carrots. The first thing that popped into my brain was dessert. I started to add all the things that would complement this dish like dates, almond mill, flax seeds, cashews and maple syrup. Before you know it I had a yummy deconstructed carrot cake. I though well lets make it into a truffle and roll it on coconut flakes. Dessert can be fun and healthy you just have to get creative. Think about the things you like that are not so healthy and remix them with more vibrant plant based ingredients. Anyways here is the recipe. Enjoy the indulgence!
