Raw Cacao and Cardamom Cream Tartlets

You’ve got to try these — we're becoming bigger fans of chocolate + cardamom with every new recipe we try. It’s a flavor combination that is highly underrated.

RAW CACAO AND CARDAMOM CREAM TARTLETS [VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE]

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CRUST:

• 1 cup raw buckwheat
• 2/3 cup dates, pitted and roughly chopped

FOR THE CREAM FILLING:

• 1 cup coconut cream
• 3 tablespoons raw cacao powder
• 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom

PREPARATION

1. Grind the raw buckwheat into a coarse flour in the food processor or high-speed blender. Add the chopped dates and blend again until both ingredients form a sticky dough.
2. Press this dough into 4 small tartlets tins (roughly 5 inches wide). Make sure the dough is evenly pressed into the bottom and sides. Refrigerate until needed.
3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the coconut cream filling. Pour into the four individual pie tins and refrigerate until set, at least 6 hours or overnight.
4. Sprinkle over a few cardamom seeds or dust with ground cardamom before serving.
