Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 scoop Detox Organics Chocolate Superfoods Powder

Filling:

  • 1 cup raw cashews soaked for 2+ hours {See Notes}
  • 1 cup mango cut into chunks
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1/4 lemon with peel
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 mango sliced for garnish

Instructions

  • For the Crust: Mix all crust ingredients in a small bowl and stir to evenly combine. Press onto the bottom of a 4-inch spring form pan.
  • For the Filling: Throw all the filling ingredients-except for the sliced mango for garnish-in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour on top of the crust and place in the freezer for 2 hours or longer to firm up.
  • Thaw for 10 minutes if the cake has been in the freezer overnight. Garnish with mango slices and enjoy!

Notes

To soak cashews, cover them with warm water for 2 hours or longer (up to 24 hours). If you forget to do so, you can cover them with hot water that was brought to a boil. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes, then rinse, drain, and use in the recipe.
