RAW PERSIMMON AND PECAN NUT CAKE
For the crust:
1 cup pecan nuts
2 tablespoons cacao powder
3 medjool dates
A Pinch of salt
For the persimmon filling:
2 persimmons
1 cup cashew nuts (soaked in water for a few hours)
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
A pinch of salt
For the chocolate topping:
¼ cup cacao powder
¼ cup melted coconut oil
3 tablespoons maple syrup
For decorating:
Persimmon slices
A handful pecan nuts, chopped
Line a container (can be any shape, mine was square 20x20 cm) with baking paper. Blend all the ingredients for the crust until a dough is formed. Press the dough in the bottom of the pan and put it in the freezer.
Blend together the ingredients for the filling and pour the mixture over the crust and put everything back in the freezer. When the filling is a bit hard, mix the ingredients for the chocolate topping until you obtain a smooth chocolate cream, pour it over the persimmon cream, spreading it fast before it hardens. Put everything back in the freezer to set for at least 3 hours. Approximately 45 minutes before serving, remove from the freezer and the container and decorate with the pecan nuts and the persimmon slices.
