i thank my raw foodist brother
for introducing me to yet another
indulgent concoction

Rich Raw Chocolate
These are approximate measurements; the flavor and texture of this recipe can be easily adjusted according to your tastes. Raw cashews can be used instead of/in addition to walnuts. Add other spices (nutmeg, cardamom) if you'd like. Add more cocoa powder for a slightly richer version. Add a bit more honey for sweetness, or to bind chocolate together more. The addition of a bit of arrowroot powder also acts as a slight binder. This makes 1 serving.
With a mortar & pestle, grind 4 raw walnuts, 1 tsp sunflower seeds & 1 tsp cacao nibs until uniform texture. Add to mortar about 1 Tbsp raw cacao powder, 1/2 tsp maca powder, a dash of ground cinnamon & 1 chopped medjool date. Combine. Add about 1 tsp good quality honey and stir until ingredients are evenly distributed. Chocolate is great eaten with a spoon, but can be rolled with a rolling pin into a flat shape, or rolled by hand into spherical truffle shapes.
