Ingredients

BOTTOM LAYER
1 cup hazelnuts (better if soaked and dehydrated first)
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon honey or any sweetener
1 tablespoon cacao nibs or powder
Pinch of sea salt
ICE CREAM LAYER
3 bananas (frozen)
1 tablespoon honey or any sweetener (optional)
CARAMEL LAYER
5 dates (soaked until soft)
¼ cup water
FROSTING LAYER
Meat from 1 young coconut
1 tablespoon dates (soaked), honey, or any sweetener of choice

Recipe Directions

BOTTOM LAYER

1. Blend up hazelnuts until well crumbled. Add rest of the ingredients in and blend until well mixed and ground.

2. Press mixture into cake pan about 8’ inches around.

ICE CREAM LAYER

3. Blend bananas and sweetener in food processor until nice and smooth. you may need a little water to get it going (a little coconut water might be nice.)

4. Spread ice cream on hazelnut layer.

CARAMEL LAYER

5. Blend dates with water in food processor or blender until very smooth.

6. Spread on top of ice cream layer.

FROSTING

7. Blend up coconut meat and sweetener until very smooth and creamy. I find that my big food processor doesn’t do much for it, but a smaller one reaches those tiny lumps and gets it really smooth.

8. Spread on top of caramel.

9. Put in freezer for a couple of hours.

I was inspired by many of the recipes on this site and dreamed up this birthday cake for Matt.

It was a huge success!

I actually made this again using 'whipped topping' made out of soaked cashews and honey... Worked out very very well!
