vegan sweet tooth vegan sweet tooth thank you first off i just want to say a big thank you to everyone who has visited my blog over the past year i can t tell you how happy it makes me to get a new comment and read that someone has tried one of my recipes i have truly enjoyed blogging about my vegan sweet tooth but i would like to announce that i will be going on hiatus for the foreseeable future all of my previous posts will remain available and i will do my best to respond to any new comments on the existing recipes but i do not plan to make any new posts for the time being thank you again to everyone who has visited vegan sweet tooth and i hope to return to blogging someday in the future january 30 2010 uncategorized 1 comment raw cacao bean brownies these raw brownies were the first dessert i ever made using whole raw cacao beans i buy raw cacao powder on a regular basis but when i found a one pound bag of cacao beans on sale at my local natural grocery store i decided to give them a try to be totally honest i wasn t wild about the cacao beans although i usually don t mind the bitterness of cacao powder i found the whole beans to be almost unbearably bitter and i also thought that the texture of the beans was unpleasantly gritty and brittle however since i now had a large bag of cacao beans on my hands i decided to try putting them to use in raw brownies and i was very pleased with the results since i was starting out with the whole cacao bean instead of just cacao powder i made the brawnies with the beans taking the place of both the nuts and the cacao powder that i would normally use to make raw brownies the cacao beans that i bought needed to be peeled so i started by soaking the beans in water to loosen the skins and make the process easier next i ground the peeled cacao beans in my food processor until they were as finely chopped as possible and then added some medjool dates agave nectar and cinnamon i don t have exact measurements for the ratio of ingredients that i used since i had eaten some of the beans beforehand and i tend to snack on dates as i pit them but i would say that i used roughly one pound of cacao beans and two pounds of medjool dates as the base for the brawnies i added as much agave nectar as i thought was necessary to offset the cacao beans bitterness you can just taste test as you go and a dash of cinnamon for flavor i spread the finished brawnie batter into my 9 12 inch baking dish placed it in the freezer overnight cut the brownies into pieces and finally started eating them the chocolate flavor in these brawnies is very intense and even with all of the dates and the agave nectar to add sweetness the brawnies are still quite bitter even with my limitless capacity for desserts i had a hard time eating more than one brownie at a time due to their intensity and i also felt quite buzzed afterward as though i had drunk a cup of coffee another method that i used to further mitigate the cacao beans bitterness was to add one of these brownies to a batch of raw ice cream or other chocolate flavored raw dessert or simply to re process the brawnie with more dates to lessen the ratio of cacao the amount of ingredients i mentioned about made a huge batch of brawnies so there was plenty of opportunity for experimentation i think that these cacao bean brawnies are as close as i ll ever get to enjoying chocolate in its natural form and i m very glad i tried them january 25 2010 brownies raw 6 comments chocolate peanut butter ice cream this chocolate peanut butter ice cream is one of my favorite desserts to make and to eat as always i use frozen bananas as the base for the ice cream and then add cocoa or cacao powder unsalted crunchy peanut butter though any kind will do and a little bit of agave nectar simply process the bananas in your food processor until smooth add the other ingredients and process again you can serve the ice cream immediately or chill in the freezer until firm this method results in ice cream that is smooth and creamy with the peanut butter adding richness to the banana base of the ice cream if you would prefer a ribbon of peanut butter instead of just the improved flavor and consistency you can also make a chocolate ice cream base and then swirl the peanut butter in at the end this ice cream is too healthy and too delicious to pass up so i definitely recommend making a batch january 15 2010 frozen desserts 2 comments next page sidebar other stuff friends everyday dish tv fat free vegan kitchen post punk kitchen vegnews this just in
