1954

Raw vegan chocolate cake is the best treat! It’s even tastier when you know you are eating a cake that is healthy for you, vegan and raw!

This cake is only made with nuts, chocolate bar and coconut milk. For those you don’t like coconut, no worries, you don’t even taste it. It’s just for the consistency of the ganache. The coconut milk makes you feel like it’s full of butter and gelatin. What a lie… ?  The consistency is perfect. You can use this ganache for cake you need to decorate or fill.

I personally use 70% chocolate but if you don’t like too dark or like when it’s a bit sweet go for a traditional baking 50% chocolate.

I recommend using a good food processor to make the base. I used my kitchen aid because it’s very efficient and also easy to clean.
