Filling:

  • 3 cups blueberries

  • 1 cup soaked macadamias

  • ½ cup pinenuts

  • 1/2 cup coconut nectar or agave 

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons ground cardamom or 5-8 drops of Organic Cardamom oil (start with less and add more, cardamom can be strong!)

  • Pinch of salt

  • 3 tablespoons melted cacao butter

  1. In a blender, combine all but the cacao butter, until completely smooth and creamy. 

  2. Add the butter and blend again to incorporate.

  3. Pour the mixture over the crust(s)
