I am terribly sorry but this recipe is a bit incomprehensible. So the base is made of dates and hazelnuts. Why is there a mention of cashews for the base and also the mention of almond crumb (Knead by hand almond crumb and date paste…)? Also, we have 1 cup od dates and then 1 cup of date paste. Is that the same ONE cup of dates, just made into a paste? I have trouble understanding this.
Secondly, the ingredients for the cream are not listed in a precise manner (Drain the cashews and rinse well, finely chop the chocolate, then throw all filling ingredients into the blender and blend until smooth.) Cashews are probably soaked in the amount of water mentioned in the ingredient list, I get that. But what are all the other ingredients? Is it possible that they are these: 1 1/2 scant cups cashew nuts
1/2 cup raw chocolate
1 cup homemade date paste
1/2-1 cup water
A dash of cardamom powder
1 tablespoon coconut oil
2 tablespoons raw cacao powder?
Because it is all so very disorganized. What goes where? Please, help. Thank you.
