No-Bake “Cookies & Cream” Slice (Vegan, Gluten-free, No Refined Sugar)

Chocolate and vanilla are one of my absolute favourite flavour combinations! And just recently I tried this raw version of a “cookies & cream” slice. I loved it! So here is the recipe for you 🙂

The super creamy cashew filling, combined chocolate chunks make this recipe one of my new favourites. So delicious! And as always, this recipe is vegan, gluten-free and without refined sugar 🙂

Course Cake, Slices

Cuisine American

Servings 1 Cake (17 x 28cm tray)

Equipment

• high-speed blender

Ingredients

  

For the crust:

• 240 g nuts (I used hazelnuts), soak them in water for at least 8 hours, then rinse and drain
• 175 g dates pitted and diced
• 50 g FAIR-TRADE cocoa or cacao powder
• 1-2 tablespoon water

For the filling:

• 210 g cashews soak them in water for at least 4 hours, then rinse and drain
• 105 g dates pitted and diced
• 190 ml water
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Instructions

 

• For the crust, place nuts and dates in high-speed blender and pulse to fine crumbles.
• Transfer crumbles to a bowl. Add cocoa and mix well. Then add just enough water to create a slightly moist dough.
• Line tray with baking paper. Scoop two thirds of the dough into the tray, spread it evenly and press it firm.
• For the filling, blend all ingredients until smooth. Start with a little less water and add more if needed. A high-speed blender with tamper is recommended.
• Spread half of the filling onto the crust. Then crumble half of the remaining dough over it. Repeat until filling and dough are used up.
• Place tray in freezer until the cake is firm (about 6 hours). Cut slices while it is relatively firm and refrigerate until serving.

Enjoy! 🙂
