raw vegan white & dark chocolate raspberry pie
rich, creamy and delicious. simple to make and lovely to eat! here is yet another healthy treat for you all to enjoy. this one is for all my chocolate lovers (woot)!
also friends, i can't stress enough the importance of buying the highest quality ingredients possible. if you can afford it, buy the best, if not, do what you can! these desserts are VERY healthy and full of great nutrients for our mind, body and spirit, when enjoyed in moderation. << that is key! they aren't low calorie or "sugar free"-they are REAL and WHOLE and they make me happy. so if they do the same to you, enjoy a slice every now & then. and add in a little extra love while you are making it (; loving energy goes a long way.
