The Legally Raw Bar
NOUGAT FILLING
1 cup almonds, unsoaked
1 cup cashews, unsoaked
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon water, or more if needed

CARAMEL
1 cup dates
1/4 cup maple syrup*
juice of one half lemon
1 tablespoon coconut oil
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 cup water

MILK CHOCOLATE
1 cup cocoa powder
1 cup maple syrup*
½ cup coconut oil
¼ cup water

1 Soak dates in the water and lemon juice for an hour. Reserve soaking water. Meanwhile, make nougats.

2 In a coffee grinder, grind cashews into a fine powder. Remove. Process the almonds into a fine powder.

3 Place nut powders in a large bowl. Add honey and water. Stir until mixture is a thick paste-like consistency.

4 Form nougat into miniature candy pieces. Place nougat pieces on a plate and put in the freezer for an hour.

Using soaking water one tablespoon at time, blend until you achieve a thick creamy mixture.

6 Spread caramel on top of nougat pieces and return the candy to the freezer while you make the chocolate.

Here is a really sweet email from one of The Daily Raw Blog readers.
"Hello Daily Raw!

Im a lover of your daily raw website — I always know I will find great recipes and ideas!

The other day I made something from your Raw Blog, for your test kitchen...the chocolate cupcakes! That post really got me, as I'm a chocolate lover all the way around. I have a raw catering business and this coming week my clients will be getting these delicious cupcakes as one of the desserts. I actually had brownie "dough" already made up, so added the vanilla and almond extracts like you had in your recipe, and had the coconut icing already made too, so added beet juice to colour it pink :D For a few of them I used a key lime filling as the icing.

Attached are a few of my cupcake pictures.

Thank you for the inspiriation! I look forward to trying your stuffed butternut squash next! :)

In light,

Heathy"

Me in May 2007

Me in May 2011I couldn't let this week pass without acknowledging that Wednesday was my 4th Anniversary at the Daily Raw Blog, especially after last year's blowout. This year is a bit more low key.

I am taking a brief trip down memory lane at my favorite posts at The Daily Raw Blog.

They are in no particular order, just fun times all around.

The Cyber Celebration featuring two days of wild and crazy fun. I had a blast making the videos and sharing all the recipes.

Valentine's Day Celebration. Chef Vinnette Thompson threw down something amazing. It was one of the best Valentine's ever!

Everything I Ate Raw is pretty fun.

How to Sprout Garbanzo Beans is a handy post and it's the most viewed page on the site.

Even though it was kind of sad, I like the way the mushroom soup provided much needed comfort after the breakup of a sister-friend.

Cheeze and Broccoli. Yummy.

I loved the early days of the blog, when I was creating the foods by the seat of my pants and praying they would at least taste good. It was a very special time of creativity.

Gotta love candy, especially the Legally Raw Bar.
