Raw Dark Chocolate Tart

Rich, creamy & oh so scrumptious.

Happy love week friends! This recipe is a special treat made of some of the most beautiful whole foods to love on yourself and your valentine.

I developed this recipe while I was studying Nutrition for my Holistic Food Preparation course. It was a huge hit and it was one of the recipes that sparked my creativity to have a blog one day!

Not only is this tart rich, creamy and unbelievably tasty, it is also 100% plant-based and gluten-free. A healthy & easy to prepare indulgence.

I hope you enjoy it!
