Chocolate Icebox Tart

2/3/2014

 
Chocolate Icebox Tart

8 to 10 servings

1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
¾ cup ground almonds (or any type of nut)
1 1/3 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
½ cup maple syrup
1 1/3 cups coconut oil (gently melted but not hot)
½ cup almond butter (or peanut butter)

In a bowl, mix together the coconut, almonds, 1/3 cup of cocoa powder, ¼ cup of maple syrup and 1/3 cup of the coconut oil.  Mix well to make the crust. Press crust into the bottom and partially up the sides of an 11 by 7 by 2” baking sheet or baking dish.  Chill for 30 minutes.

Put the almond butter and the remaining 1 cup cocoa power, ¼ cup maple syrup, and 1 cup coconut oil in a food processor. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Pour filling into the chilled tart shell and chill for 2 hours or until firm.

Cut into 1-inch squares and serve.

Cover and refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days.

Recipe from True Food: Seasonal, Sustainable, Simple, Pure by Dr. Andrew Weil, Sam Fox and chef Michael Stebner
