Decadent Chocolate Torte (Vegan/Raw/Gluten-free)

Hi friends! Ooo my first blog post ever! I’m so excited to share this with you!

A few years ago, my mom became allergic to a whole laundry list of items and along with my allergies to peanuts & cow dairy (I’m okay with goat/sheep etc.), it created a problem when making desserts, in particular for occasions such as Christmas/ Thanksgiving/ Easter Dinner etc.  Allergies do not need to be the end of delicious desserts for you or your family and I’m here to show you just that! This recipe is VERY decadent.  A little goes a long way.  I topped the torte with my coconut whip recipe and it was a hit with all!

I love chocolate in, on or with ANYTHING!! In my opinion, it’s the fool proof ingredient. Fruit gets runny and watery but chocolate? It’s always got my back and it’s always my go-to ingredient for desserts that I make for other people.  This is a great dessert to make ahead of time and can be adapted to add the toppings of your choosing.  No one will ever know it’s healthy!  It stays well in the fridge but I’d suggest adding fruit day of and whip when serving only to prolong its fridge life.
