Basil Flavored Triple Chocolate Raw Cake

 

Basil Flavored Triple Chocolate Raw Cake

Rarely, I would prepare twice one and the same dish. That’s what happened this time. I was asked for the purple raw cake but inspired by the fresh green basil leaves grown on my Mom’s kitchen window at the end we got a brand new chocolate cake with a basil flavored layer.

Process the walnuts, 2 table spoons of cacao powder, chopped dates and 2-3 table spoons from the thick part of coconut milk in a food processor. If it stays too dry add some more coconut milk.
