  • 1 cup raw cashews

  • 3 tablespoons Sucanat or brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 Medjool dates, pitted and chopped
  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips

  3. Pour in the steaming hot water and process until completely smooth.
  4. Divide the mixture between six small wine glasses or eight espresso cups. Refrigerate 4 to 8 hours or until set.
