Oh, ice cream. There are some of us (like me) who loves to enjoy it on both the hottest summer and the coldest winter days. And I can’t tell you enough how nothing can beat a homemade vegan ice cream. If you’ve been looking for a quick and easy way how to make your own vegan ice cream, then I have the perfect recipe just for you.

Orange Carob Smoothie Bowl
Smoothie bowls! They’re smoothies, but they’re meals, they’re smoothie bowls! This orange carob smoothie is a great way to start your day. It’s an equally great way to end your day. And it’s pretty good right in the middle, too!
Double Chocolate Berry Cookies
These rich double dark chocolate cookies pack a decent dose of berries to boot! Sometimes life calls for double chocolate. When that happens, you might as well have the most nutrient-dense chocolate cookies in town.
Pumpkin Chocolate Brownies
These raw vegan pumpkin chocolate brownies are just about the perfect fall/winter treat. With chocolate chips, cacao nibs, walnuts, and coconut, it’s a dessert that will please (almost) anyone!
Breakfast Chocolate Banana Boat
Recipes don’t come any simpler than this, unless you count unpeeling a banana a recipe! For those of us who aren’t morning people, simplicity can sometimes be the best thing about a breakfast recipe. Of course, being delicious and nutritious doesn’t hurt, either!

Kale Cacao Cashew Smoothie
Bitter green leafies are great for your digestive system and your liver! Kale is everyone’s favorite bitter green leafy, and it goes great in smoothies! Why not throw some nuts and bit of cacao in there too? If you’re allergic to cashews, you can substitute peanuts or just leave them out entirely.
Chocolate Brownie Bars
These are sort of the ‘kitchen sink’ version of brownies, which is to say that there’s a lot of stuff thrown in them! But what might seem at first to be haphazard is, in fact, the most delectable raw brownie recipe this side of the Mississippi.
Chocolate Mint Avocado Ice Cream
You’ve probably tried banana ice cream, but how about avocado ice cream? There’s so many directions you can go once you’ve got the base recipe of avocados, coconut milk, and maple syrup. Chocolate mint is just one idea! You can either make it into popsicles as shown, or enjoy it with a spoon.
Lovely Chocolate Strawberry Almond Shake
Some things are meant especially for two: tandem bicycles, bunk beds, teeter-totters, and this chocolate strawberry almond shake! With plenty of dark luscious cacao and maca powder, this strawberry chocolate shake is fit for Aphrodite and all her admirers. This recipe makes enough for two, so maybe save it for date night! And of course, any leftover strawberries might add to the romantic atmosphere, too! You could even double-down with some chocolate strawberries!
Innuendo aside, this awesome smoothie/shake is full of delicious fruit, is packed with nutrients, and is a scrumptious chocolaty treat for any occasion. It takes an extra bit of care to get the layering right, but don’t worry! No matter how it turns out, it’s bound to be a lovely and delicious treat.
Chocolate Caramel Banana Cake
Banana cake is where it’s at. What sort of mood are you in? Are you happy? Well have some banana cake. Feeling sad? Banana cake will make you feel better. Craving something indulgent and rich? Banana cake! Celebrating? Have some banana cake!
It’s soft but it’s firm. It’s got crunchy nuts but the creaminess of banana. It is the yin and yang of cake. It’s a good piece of dessert, is what we’re saying. And if all that weren’t enough, it’s so simple even the clumsiest cuisinier could put it together.
Chocolate Nut Butter Smoothie
A chocolate nut butter smoothie doesn’t need much more of an introduction than that. It’s chocolate with nut butter, and it’s a smoothie. Therefore it’s the greatest thing ever.
If you haven’t been convinced that this smoothie is the greatest thing ever, consider the fact that it comes in layers. So not only is it a nut butter smoothie, with chocolate, but it’s fun and pretty at the same time. Think of other great things that have layers. Tiramisu. Cakes. Ogres. I think the point is made.
The optional cacao nib garnish is a nice way to add a bit of extra bittersweet darkness to the smoothie, and also for a bit of texture. But of course, this isn’t an all-chocolate showcase. That almond butter makes for a super creamy, delicious smoothie that will give you a boost of protein and amino acids on top of your daily recommended dose of chocolate.
German Chocolate Chia Porridge
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And chocolate is the most important food. So any opportunity to combine healthful raw chocolate with breakfast is an opportunity for success!
This raw chocolate chia porridge almost seems like cheating. You get a sweet, delicious breakfast with honest-to-goodness chocolate in it to satisfy the kid in you, but the adult in you doesn’t have to feel guilty about what you just ate. With the bounty of chia seeds for omega fatty goodness, plus the stimulating effects of cacao, this is a great way to start your day.
Plus it tastes amazing. You might not want to have anything other than chocolate chia porridge for breakfast ever again!
Almond Honeycomb Hearts
The heart is a symbol of vitality and love. What better way to share your love than with these lovely Almond Honeycomb Hearts. These cute little heart-shaped drops of sweetness are full of the natural goodness of almonds, coconut, cacao and honeycomb.
A simple but elegant treat for the loved ones in your life. Tiny little things, you can make a whole bunch to share with your friends, or keep them for an intimate evening with that special someone. Don’t forget that handful of love.
