Written by Kajsa IngelssonApril 18, 2017

Hey hey hello! It’s tuesday, aka sweets day (or is that everyday?) and I have a real treat for you today. You might remember one of my best friends, Ara from Ara Goes Green? She shared a recipe of a delicious broccoli and lentil stew last time. Well this time it’s an even better surprise: a creamy, easy, super nutritious and heavenly tasty dessert! Let me introduce you to your brand new sweetheart:

Ara’s raw superfood tiramisu

  • Makes 4 portions.
  • Preparation: 30min (plus soaking time for activating the nuts and seeds if you are doing that)
  • Materials: I used 4 martini cups but you can use a 9 inch pan.

Mascarpone cream

  • 1 cup (2,5 dl) of activated (or regular) seeds (I used sunflower seeds)
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground coffee
  • 5 tablespoons coconut sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup (1 dl) coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon maca powder (optional)
  • 1/2 tablespoon lucuma powder (optional)
  • 1/2 tablespoon mesquite powder (optional)

Base

  • 1/2 cup (1 dl) dates
  • 1 cup (2,5 dl) activated nuts (I used almonds)
  • 1 teaspoon ground coffee
  • 1 teaspoon melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cacao powder

Make the base like this:

  • Place the nuts in a food processor or blender and grind them.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until well mixed.
  • Place a 1 cm layer of the mixture in your cups or pan.
  • Place it in the freezer.

And now make the cream:

  • Blend all the ingredients until well mixed.
  • Place a layer on top of the prepared base.
  • Place in the freezer for 10min.
  • Keep layering until you finish the base and cream.
  • Decorate with cacao powder and coffee beans.
