Fabulous Fourth of July Pie
Submitted by Matthew on Thu, 12/10/2009 - 16:23Back in my cooked days, I used to make a very tasty Star Spangled Mousse Pie from Taste of Home. It called for a cooked butter pastry shell, semi-sweet and white chocolate, whipping cream, cream cheese, shortening and other... not very healthy ingredients. This raw version of the pie is even more delicious. After all, chocolate can be made raw, and so can pie crusts and fillings!
Ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups cashews, unsoaked
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
- 2 T dark agave nectar
- 1 T maple syrup
- 1 T coconut oil
- Pinch salt
