I hear you like raw chocolate, got any favorite recipes?

Raw Cacao is an amazing food. My favorite has to be:

 

Really Raw Chocolate Ice Cream

Phase 2, serves 6

Part 1: Coconut Cream

 

In a blender:

3 C Coconut pulp*

3 C Coconut water*

Blend into a creamy consistency

 

Part 2: The Flavors

1 C raw cacao powder

½ C Agave nectar

½ C coconut butter

2 t salt

 

Blend separately in a high-speed blender: coconut butter, agave and cacao

powder until it forms a very smooth texture. Blend the coconut cream with the

flavors mixture and salt. Pour this mixture into an ice cream maker and follow

manufacturers instructions. Or freeze and process through a champion juicer.

 

Options: Various sweet fruits, berries, dried fruits (blueberries are

awesome), mesquite, sweet spices, orange peel, vanilla

 

*Various Options if no young coconut available:

Create nut mylk with 3 C nuts, 3 C water. Blend and strain Use: almond,

brazil, macadamia, walnut, pecans or fresh mature coconut

 

And:

 

Chocolate brownies

phase 2

 

4 C unsoaked pecans

4 C unsoaked brazil nuts

3 t sea salt

1¼ C blended cacao beans

¾ C raw carob

2 C soaked raisins pureed

6 T agave nectar

½ C melted coconut oil

 

Blend pecans to a fine meal and place in a bowl. Blend the brazil nuts to a

fine meal and combine with the pecans. If wanting your brownies with chunks

leave some nuts slightly chunkier. Add the salt, blended cacao beans and carob

to the nuts and mix until well incorporated.

Mix pureed raisins thoroughly into the dry nut mix. Add your agave nectar

and coconut oil into the brownie mix and work through with your hands.

Place the brownie mix in a 9 x 13 “ glass dish and pat down evenly. Sprinkle

with cacao powder and refrigerate.

 

Optional additional ingredients:

Orange zest

Almond extract

Desiccated coconut

For Mexican brownies add 3 t cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne.

HI there - well, I just start out with Gabriel Cousins basic 'nut mylk'

recipe in Rainbow Green Live Cuisine, and I add a little bit of lavender,

which leaves a lavender essence. I probably add about 1 tsp. of dried

flowers. If you've played around with lavender in the kitchen you probably

know a little goes a long way. Enjoy!

 

Cheers,

 

Jillian
