  • minutes
  • Serves

INGREDIENTS

1 tbsp

plus 2 tsp cocoa powder (8g)

3 tbsp

spelt flour (or white, or Arrowhead Mills gf) (See nutrition link below, for substitution notes.) (30g)

1/8 tsp

salt

2 tsp

sugar or evaporated cane juice (edit: xylitol works as well) (10g)

1/4 tsp

baking powder

1

stevia packet (or 1 tablespoon more sugar)

2 tsp

coconut oil or vegetable oil (10-12g) (Many readers say it still tastes good if you sub applesauce or mashed banana. But I can’t personally vouch for the results if you make that substitution.)

3 tbsp

milk of choice (45g) (I used almond milk)

1/2 tsp

pure vanilla extract

1 cup

pecans (100g)

1/4 cup

pitted dates (40g) (If you don’t like dates, you can omit this, but it doesn’t make the frosting taste like dates; it just gives a caramel taste.)

1/4 cup

plus 3 tbsp water (105g)

scant 1/4 tsp salt

1/2 tsp

pure vanilla extract

2 tsp

maple syrup (10g)

2

nunaturals stevia packets, or 2 tbsp powdered sugar (or omit and simply increase maple syrup to 3 tbsp, while cutting the water back to 1/4 cup)

optional: 3 tbsp coconut butter, for a more buttery taste (45g)

1 tbsp

shredded coconut (5g)
