Ingredients
60 g cashew nuts
90 g rice flour
45 g raw cane sugar
pinch of salt
75 g dairy-free margarine (I used dairy margarine)
225 g dark chocolate
300 ml coconut milk
toasted coconut
Method
Blend the cashews in a food processor until finely chopped.
Mix with the rice flour, salt and sugar.
Rub in the margarine until it forms a soft dough.
Press into 18 cm round cake tin and bake for 20 minutes at 170 degrees C. (I used muffin tins with paper cases and baked at 15 – 20 minutes)
Allow to cool.
Melt the chocolate with the coconut milk, stirring continuously until well combined.
Spoon over the cake base and top with toasted coconut.
Allow to cool before refrigerating.
