1 cup Walnuts

½ cup [gluten free] rolled oats

1 ½ cups Dates

A few drops vanilla

2 cups Cashews, soaked for at least 2 hours

¼ cup Coconut oil, not melted

2 tbsp Maple syrup

1 tsp Vanilla extract

Directions:

Get a springform cake pan which is 7" in diameter

Spray with a little oil

Pulse the nuts and oats in your food processor. Don't make it into a powder, leave a little texture

Then add the dates and pulse until it sticks together

Now press this into the cake pan and refrigerate

For the filling just place everything into a high speed blender until it is a thick and creamy consistency

Not too runny (add more dates and soaked nuts) and not too thick and gluggy (then add a splash of almond milk)

Now pour this onto the chilled crust in the cake pan and smooth out the top

Refrigerate overnight

Next day: top with your chosen additions. Hemp seeds, crushed walnuts, toasted pine nuts, grated dark dairy free chocolate etc

Cut with a knife dipped into boiling hot water

Try not to eat the whole cake by yourself. It is very delicious...
