This cake is lusciously creamy. Extra chocolatey. Not too sweet. But still sweet enough. Completely vegan. Free of added sugars. And its super easy to make !!
The base of the cake is made up of nuts, coconut, and dates. The dates both sweeten the crust and hold it together at the very same time. It’s magical and delicious, but not quite as magical and delicious as the vegan “custard” filling.
Oh my gosh, this “custard”, that’s not really custard at all, but resembles a custard, is delicious! It’s creamy, smooth, super chocolatey, light, airy, and just perfect.
You’ll need a high powdered food processor or blender for this recipe. The filling is made out of tofu (don’t worry, it still tastes delicious), and it takes a lot of power to get everything broken down into creamy goodness.
It’s also very important to give these cakes time to chill. The custard needs at least four hours to set up, so plan ahead for this recipe guys. Promise, the planning will be worth it!
