Ingredients
- 1 cup Almonds
- 12 whole Medjool dates, pitted
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 1 tablespoon Ground ginger
- 0.5 cup Desiccated coconut
- 1.5 cups Cashews, soaked overnight and drained
- 0.75 cup Coconut cream
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Stevia or erythritol
Directions
Step 1
Line a square 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing extra to hang over the edges for easy removal.
Step 2
In a food processor, combine almonds, dates, 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, ground ginger, and desiccated coconut. Pulse until the mixture is fine and sticky.
Step 3
Press the dough evenly into the lined baking pan to form the base. Place it in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the topping.
Step 4
In the same food processor (no need to clean), add the soaked cashews, remaining coconut oil, coconut cream, fresh ginger, vanilla extract, and stevia or erythritol.
Step 5
Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed to ensure a consistent texture.
Step 6
Pour the creamy mixture over the chilled base in the pan and smooth it out with a spatula.
Step 7
Chill in the freezer for at least 2 hours or until set.
Step 8
Once set, remove from the pan using the overhanging parchment paper and cut into slices.
Step 9
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
