Raw Date Nut Torte with Lime Frosting

raw dateI've been holding on to this one for a long time and demonstrated this recipe at my Raw Food demo last Saturday and everyone went crazy over it! So, I'm sharing it today. I added the pomegranate seeds to the top to make it a little prettier because it can look a little blah using the neutral ingredients so feel free to change-up the frosting with any citrus and top with anything to add color! Hope you love it as much as we do! Torte:

  • 1 C raisins
  • 1 C walnuts

 Frosting:

  • ½ C dates, pitted and soaked for at least an hour
  • ½-1 lime, juiced (Use lemon,orange, grapefruit to sub)

Directions:Torte: In a food processor, combine raisins and walnuts and blend well until moist like fudge. Mold into a round circle on a plate 1 ½ inch thick.Frosting: In a food processor, combine dates and lemon juice until smooth and creamy, spread on top of torte.
