Easy Vegan Chocolate and Almond Tarts

January 17, 2016 / Niki / 12 Comments

I’m having a lovely weekend relaxing after Budapest last weekend and a crazy busy week at work again. The problem is that even though I’m able to relax much more then I used to I still feel a little guilty doing nothing but relaxing. So I’ve been relaxing/researching/cooking/exercising which is sort of perfect for me!
And I decided to make a little weekend treat from Andy and I (more for Andy as he’s the dessert daemon!). Another version of my amazing vegan tarts, this time choc and almond with a brazil nut base.

I’ve said before but these tarts are so good! The creamy filling combines perfectly with the nutty cacao base. They are packed with good fats, protein from the tofu and nuts, and with no refined sugar these guys are just too delicious. And they can be whipped up the minutes. Happy days!

Raw choc and almond tart

I love this double chocolately delight but you could add in a couple of tbsp of orange juice to the filling to make a choc orange tart. Mmm love the sound of that.

  Makes 4 tarts servings
  20 minutes preparation time
  None cook time

Ingredients

  • Filling ingredients;
  • 1 pack organic silken tofu
  • 3 tbsp raw cacao
  • 3 tbsp almond butter
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • Pinch Himalayan salt
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

 

  • Base ingredients;

  • 5 medjool dates
  • 1 tbsp. almond butter

Directions

  1. Add all the base ingredients to your food processor and blitz until the mix comes together. Remove the mix and divide into four. Press the mix into the bottom and edges of the tart cases (I used 9cm)  and up the sides. Pop in the fridge while you get the filling ready.
  2. Clean your food processor then add all the filling ingredients and blitz until smooth and creamy.
  3. Top the tarts with the filling then pop them back in the fridge to firm up a little.

    These tarts look so good, and absolutely beautiful! I’m a little confused about which ingredients are for the base, and which are for the filling. Would you mind explaining that for me please? Thanks! ????
