Ingredients
For the Coffee Mixture:
- 1 1/2 cups strong brewed coffee (cooled)
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
For the Cashew Cream:
- 1 1/2 cups raw cashews (soaked 4 hours or boiled for 10 minutes)
- 3/4 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Additional Ingredients:
- 1 pack vegan ladyfinger cookies or sponge cake
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
- Shaved vegan chocolate (optional for topping)
Instructions
- Coffee Mixture: Combine cooled brewed coffee and maple syrup in a shallow bowl. Set aside.
- Cashew Cream: Blend soaked cashews, coconut milk, maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Adjust sweetness to taste.
- Assembly: Dip vegan ladyfingers in coffee mixture and layer at the bottom of an 8×8-inch dish. Spread half of the cashew cream over the ladyfingers. Repeat for a second layer. Dust with cocoa powder. Chill for at least 4 hours.
