Raw Vegan Brownie

I found that my oven's broken last week. This really made me sad. I couldn't bake any cakes (and also couldn't post any fantastic food on my Instagram, hahaha...) Finally, I decided to made something raw. Then I ended up with this Raw Vegan Brownie. Although this brownie 's raw, they're pretty good. I like it sooooo much... ^^

Below is the recipe.. ^^ enjoyy~ =D

Ingredients

1 cup dates

1 cup walnuts

1/4 cup cocoa powder

a pinch of salt

Preparation

1.     Place walnuts in food processor and blend on high until the nuts are finely ground.

2.     Add the cacao and salt. Pulse to combine.

3.     Add the dates one at a time through the feed tube of the food processor while it is running. What you should end up with is a mix that appears rather like cake crumbs, but that when pressed, will easily stick together.

4.     Press into a lined cake pan or mold. Place in freezer or fridge until ready ro serve.

ENJOYYYY~~~~~ ^^
