Tigger Bounce talking of chocolate is making my mouth water.
I do not spend much time preparing food but have been making a chocolate dessert that I am just mad about. It is all raw and I do find that a little satisfies my cravings (which is amazing as I have never been a big chocolate eater but would always eat more than needed just in the hopes that the more I eat the better it would taste. Crazy I know)

Anyway, I make this in a glass casserole dish, just enough to cover the bottom.

a scoop of raw almond butter
a sprinkle of organic dried raw coconut both slivers and fine shred
a sprinkle of raw carob
a sprinkle of raw cocoa nibs ground in the coffee mill
a sprinkle of Gogi berries when I can get them
and drizzled coconut oil

Mix it all together and put it in the fridge. Once hard I break it up into bits and have a few after my evening meal. I find it both satisfying and delightful. I feel like I am getting a real treat...every day!!

I am hoping that the fact that all the ingredients are raw, the calorie and fat count will not be too bad, or will be out weighed by the raw goodness.


MMMM, my mouth is watering for some now. Tonight Elfie, you will have to wait until tonight....ohhhhhhh

    btw, with your new dehydrator you MUST try the raw pumpkin recipe. I will try to find mine, it is dehydrated and refrigerated so it has the consistency of a real pumpkin pie. So good. So delicious!!!! I'll look tonight, K? Remind me...I am getting old and forgetful!
