How to Prepare Raw German Chocolate Cake [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

To make the base, simply mix all the ingredients except water in a food processor or high-speed blender. Start adding some of the soaking water until you have a sticky consistency and it all comes together.
Take mixture and press down in a glass container, preferably square. Leave in the refrigerator while you make the topping.
Using the same equipment, start by mixing the fresh and dried coconut meat until it is looks mashed. Add the rest of the ingredients and leave the water until the end. Adding 1/2 cup first and add more slowly, if needed. It should be smooth but not too liquidy.If you don’t want to use stevia adjust sweetness by adding more dates or liquid sweetener.
Spread over chocolate base and leave in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before serving.
