It's harder to find, unless you have a natural foods store, but it's best to use
RAW cashew butter if you want this truly raw (the label will specify if it's raw or not).
Not exact matches
I'm not sure
if this was down to using homemade almond
butter (previously used
cashew butter), not sifting the
raw cacao or over-mixing in the Magimix — any thoughts on this would be appreciated (although this may be better directed at Madeleine as the recipe originated from her.)
But do you think
if I make my

But you could experiment (
if you don't have a nut sensitivity) with replacing it with a mild - flavored nut
butter like
raw almond or
cashew butter!
If you don't have coconut
butter (like Artisana), just double the amount of soaked
raw cashews or, for a nutty twist, use
raw almond
butter!
