Tomorrow night I'm bringing dessert to a dinner party with a group of entirely non-raw folks. I want to completely WOW them with something delicious that they would never believe is raw. Any suggestions or recipes I should consider? I want it to look and taste amazing.

Thank you!

there are some deliscious looking deserts here www.goneraw.com
They have "to dir for" recipes, im sure everybody will be fooled!

hello, I have alot of dessert recipes that cooked fooders would enjoy at my goneraw page and blog.

Here is the best ever, no-fail, win-em-over dessert:

Joy’s Cinnamon Rolls with Chocolate Fudge Frosting
Cinnamon Rolls
1 C raw, organic pecans (not soaked)
1 C raw, organic medjool dates
1/4 C raw, organic cacao powder
1 T organic vanilla powder
1 t organic, ground ginger
1/4 C raw, organic coconut butter (this is creamy ground cocoanut meat, Artisana is my
favorite)
1/4 C organic, ground cinnamon
Blend all ingredients except the cinnamon in a food processor, pulsing until it forms a wellmixed
dough. Add a couple more dates if it needs to be a little bit stickier. Spread 1/2 the
cinnamon onto a flexible plastic cutting board and press the dough into a rectangle about
1/8" thick, starting about 3" from the edge nearest you. Sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon on
top, pushing lightly into the dough. Lift the edge of the flexible board nearest you and start
to roll the dough away from you until rolled into a log. Cut into 2" rounds. (Think sushi rolls.)
Arrange on a plate and put into the refrigerator for about an hour.
Chocolate Fudge Frosting
1 C raw, organic cacao powder
1 C raw, organic agave nectar
1/4 C raw, organic coconut butter
1 T Cinnamon
Zap in food processor until smooth, creamy and shiny. Plop onto Cinnamon rolls. (I like a
giant 'plop' on mine; my husband likes the rolls without the frosting. Try it both ways!) Store
left over frosting in a glass jar in the refrigerator. Let sit at room temperature for about an
hour before using again.
