Healthy Chocolate Pudding

This shit is easy, healthy and super yum.  I have been wanting to experiment more with silken tofu and this recipe was a total success. Silken tofu is packaged tofu that is much creamier and less flavorful than regular tofu.  The idea for this recipe came to me one night as I was ravaging through the cupboards like a dope fiend looking for something chocolaty and sweet.  I stopped and thought about it for a second and it came to me and here it is in all it's glory.  You could probably double or triple the recipe and fill a pie crust up with it.  Yes! Chocolate pie!  Sorry to get so excited, I love pie:)

Healthy Chocolate Pudding

1 package silken tofu
1 1/2 tablespoon chocolate powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon melted raw coconut oil
pinch of salt

Place all ingredients in a blender until well mixed and place in the refridgerator for a couple of hours until it sets.

The Bomb Diggity Raw Chocolate Shake

This shit is no joke.  If you have a sweet tooth like this beezie than this little doozy is for you.  It is the perfect drink to put two striped bendy straws in and share with a loved one:)  Ooohhh just the thought of it gives me warm fuzzies inside.

The Bomb Diggity Raw Chocolate Shake

2 peeled frozen bananas
3-4 dates depending on how sweet you like things
1 tablespoon raw chocolate powder
water

1.  Put all the ingredients in a blender and add water until the shake reaches a desired consistency.  Let blend for a minute so the dates get mixed in real good.  Then pour into your favorite glass, pop in your bendy straw and there you have it, heaven on earth.

Raw Fudge Brownie Treats

Ever since Thanksgiving I have been on a serious sugar binge which is just so eww, so instead of making a banana cream pie (sounds so effin good right now) for my neighborhood holiday potluck I decided to try this schnazzy recipe I came up with.  And oh my,  these healthy little balls of deliciousness are just heavenly.  They taste a little healthy but really pack in a good rich chocolatey punch.  Just an FYI, I will probably be doing more raw food recipes for the next couple weeks to gear up for my raw food/juice fast cleanse I am planning for the beginning of January.  Don't worry though, I am totally not one of those raw foodie freaks who claim that they love the taste of raw kale (eww and double eww!).

Anyways... this recipe is super duper easy and only takes about 10 minutes from start to finish if you skip shaping them into cute little donut hole looking things which I only did for potluck convenience.  These are perfect little treats for those with a sweet tooth who are trying to keep it healthy, so give them a whirl and let me know what you think.

2 cups raw walnuts
12 dates pitted
1/2 cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
shredded coconut (optional)

1.  Place walnuts in a food processor until a smooth powder forms then add the rest of the ingredients and blend until well mixed.  Press walnut mixture into a small greased pan, 8x8 would probably work or form into donut holes and viola, raw fudge brownie treats.  Store in refrigerator until ready to eat.

Note: You can probably shape these puppies into just about anything, next time I think I will steal one of my sisters mini-cupcake pans (that bitch has like five of them anyways, like who needs that many mini cupcake pans?!), press the walnut mixture into mini-cupcakes and make a frosting out of avocado, cocoa powder and agave to top them off with.
