  1. Grind/blend Cashews into a flour-like consistency.
  2. Blend ground Cashews and Coconut Cream until smooth.
  3. Drain Dates, then blend all ingredients, except the Coconut Oil, until smooth.
  4. Add Coconut Oil and blend again.
  5. Only mix the Peppermint oil into the mousse in a glass or ceramic bowl/container. The potency of Essential Oils can leach materials (such as plastic) into food.
  6. Optional: Allow Mousse to set in fridge for 15 min+.
Recipe Notes

*You can enjoy straight away or put in the fridge for 15-30 minutes to set for a more Mousse-like consistency.

*Store sealed in a glass jar in the fridge. Eat within 1-2 days (if it lasts that long!) 

*Choose the cleanest ingredients possible:

-Choose spray-free/organic fresh produce for fresh ingredients where possible, and if buying conventional, rinse in diluted white vinegar water to remove.

-Choose dry ingredients (i.e. nuts, seeds, dried fruits ) that are spray-fee/organic where possible, and which don’t have preservatives such as sulphur dioxide.

- Choose virgin, cold-pressed Coconut Oil in glass where possible. It should be pure white in colour. Do not choose cheaper, deodorised/neutral flavoured coconut oils that are off-white.

-Choose Coconut Cream and Coconut Milk that is clean/free from additives, preservatives and E numbers. Plain Coconut Cream/Milk is better than the ones with added guar gum as this changes the consistency of recipes. You can use Nut Milk as an alternative. 

-Choose to homemade Nut Milk instead of buying. Most store bought ones have additives and stabilisers. Quick Tip: It’s easy to make your own: just grind ¼ cup nuts, then blend with 1 cup water. 

-Choose whole fruits over optional sweeteners if you need to add more sweetness. My preferred choice is Date Paste (pre-soaked Dates). Quick Tip: Keep a jar filled with Dates covered with water, in the fridge ready to go and use as is (instead of actually blending to make Date Paste).

  1. Blend everything except the Cacao Butter together until smooth.
  2. Gently *warm the Cacao Butter until melted, add to mixture and blend again (see recipe notes below for instructions on how to warm Cacao Butter).
Recipe Notes

*To melt Cacao Butter - I heat some water in a pot, then place a stainless steel bowl in the pot, add a little heated water to the bowl, and then add a glass bowl in which the Cacao Butter can melt without it getting too hot/burning. We want the Cacao Butter to remain raw (healthy for us), so avoid heating it more than 40 °C / 104 °F.

*Place excess left over in moulds to make hard chocolates. Store in fridge/freezer. Eat within 4-5 days (if it lasts that long!)

*Serving suggestions:

-You can serve this yummy sauce on almost anything. 

-Dip whole strawberries to make Chocolate dipped strawberries or use it as Chocolate Fondue sauce.

*Choose the cleanest ingredients possible:

-Choose spray-free/organic fresh produce for fresh ingredients where possible, and if buying conventional, rinse in diluted white vinegar water to remove.

-Choose dry ingredients (i.e. nuts, seeds, dried fruits ) that are spray-fee/organic where possible, and which don’t have preservatives such as sulphur dioxide.

- Choose virgin, cold-pressed Coconut Oil in glass where possible. It should be pure white in colour. Do not choose cheaper, deodorised/neutral flavoured coconut oils that are off-white.

  5. Shape the Chocolate Mud Cake mixture into balls and place in silicon or paper cupcake cups and press slightly into the moulds.
  6. Using a spoon, add a dollop of the Caramel Layer and smooth over the surface using the back of the spoon. *Tip - a little Coconut Oil on the back of the spoon helps prevent the caramel from sticking to the spoon.
  7. Using a spoon, add a dollop of the Chocolate Layer to the top, again using the back of a spoon - this time no Coconut Oil though so you can create a ‘whip’ shape on the top of the little cakes.
  8. Optional: Place in fridge for 15min+ to allow to set before serving. Sprinkle with Calendula petals and/or Lavender flowers.

  1. Steam Chestnuts for 10 - 15 min. Use a stainless steel colander or sieve to suspend the Chestnuts in a pot above boiling water (without letting the water touch the nuts).
  2. Let cool, then cut into halves. Scrape the soft nut flesh out using a teaspoon and set aside.
  3. Gently *warm the Chocolate Chips until melted (see recipe notes below for instructions on how to warm Chocolate Chips).
  4. Pulse together the Chestnut flesh, Almonds, Pecan Nuts, Coconut Flakes, Dates, Cacao Powder, Salt.
  5. Combine the mixture with the melted Chocolate Chips and the Cherries and mix well using a wooden spoon or silicon spatula. Use a little warm Spring Water to help with mixing (use only small amounts at a time).
  6. Line a baking tray with non-toxic baking paper/parchment paper and spread the mixture even over the surface. Use a knife to cut the tray into squares. Place in freezer for 5 minutes to allow to set.
Recipe Notes

*Chocolate Chips I buy are simply made from raw organic Cane Sugar, Cacao Butter and Cacao Powder. 

*Can make and use 3x portions of our Chocolate Sundae Sauce as a replacement if you can’t find clean Chocolate Chips.

*To melt Chocolate Chips - I heat some water in a pot, then place a stainless steel bowl in the pot, add a little heated water to the bowl, and then add a glass bowl in which the Chocolate Chips can melt without it getting too hot/burning. We want the Cacao Butter to remain healthy for us, so avoid heating it more than 40 °C / 104 °F.
