Okay here we go.... I have to say again.. this is AMAZING!!! Just amazing. The best raw dessert ever!! Better than chocolate carmel divine and easier too!
Grind up:
1/2 cup goji berries (usually sticky, not really a powder)
Blend until smooth:
1/2 cup melted cacao butter
1/2 cup raw cashews
1/2 cup agave nectar
Blend in Goji powder
Then by hand mix in whole:
1/2 cup cacao nibs (optional)
1/2 cup whole goji berries
The zest from 1 orange finely zested
Spread in a glass pie plate (think chocolate almond bark).
Chill in the freezer until firm.
WOW! WOW! WOW!!
It's this brillant red/orange colour, with the crunch of dried goji berries and cacao nibs. A sweet dessert, and also HUGE in antioxidents too!
WOW! WOW! WOW!!
It actually reminds me strongly of orange cranberry desserts that are quite common in Canada. YUMMY!!!
The best thing about raw chocolate... you have like 20 g and you're satisfied. We've only eaten the smallest chunk out of this fudge. Show me that happening with a regular family, and a standard chocolate bar! Never!!
Happy chocolate experimenting!
Sheryl

I made it today and it's in the freezer. So far WOW is right.
Question; do you have to add the zested orange? Will it change the flavor?
Waiting for picture to see what yours looked like. Joz

I just gave some to my 3 year old who tasted it & said "yat not good a mine body! Yat make mine body hurt" Apparently she thought it was actual real junk food!! I had to convince her it was raw & explain what was in it before she would take another bite!! It does taste just like candy!

What are goji berries? I've never seen them in the UK. Can I substitute them for something else? How are they prepared?

Anyone know source in Ottawa or Canada in general for berries?
I've never seen these. Hopefully I can get them locally. Anyone live in the area that has seen them here?
Thanks!
