Raw Date Nut Torte

This recipe comes courtesy of Alissa Cohen. It is fast and easy to put together and tastes divine! Only made 1/2 of the recipe, just to get a better picture for you!

Raw Date Nut Torte

Date Nut Torte
Base of Torte
2 cups raisins
2 cups walnuts
  • In a food processor, combine raisins and walnuts and blend until well blended and moist
  • This will take a few minutes and you may see it forming a ball
  • Make sure the raisins come out looking like a fudgey mixture and are not still grainy
  • Remove from food processor and mould onto a plate in a round circle about 1-1/2" thick  
Frosting
1 cup dates, pitted and soaked
1/2 lemon, juiced 
  • In a food processor, combine dates and lemon juice until smooth and creamy
  • Spread the frosting on top of the torte
  • If you want a firmer texture that will be easier to slice, refrigerate the torte for a few hours
