  3. Once chocolate filling is blended, begin scooping your filling into your mini cheesecake pans. Fill them to the top. Set the chocolate cream cakes into your freezer to set for a few hours before removing from pan. You may enjoy this chocolate dessert as is or you may add on more chocolate and pecans.

  1. This recipe is not "raw", because the recipe calls for either Maple Syrup or Agave Syrup. These two syrups are not "raw" foods!

    Here is why…

    For a food to be considered "raw", some experts state it can not be heated up past 104°F – 120°F. During the cooking process Maple Syrup is boiled at 219°F and Agave Syrup is boiled between 140°F – 160°F when being processed!
