Vegan Flourless Chocolate Raspberry Cake

This Flourless Chocolate Raspberry Cake recipe features a silky vegan chocolate mousse enhanced with coconut oil, cocoa powder and a touch of vanilla extract. It's then blended with fresh raspberries for a delectable combination. It's also easy to make, wheat free and doesn't even require baking. The hardest part is waiting several hours for it to firm up in the fridge.

½ cup coconut oil, refined
12 oz. (or 1 pack, or 2/3 cup) silken tofu
1 cup powdered sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
2 Tablespoons margarine
2 Tablespoons arrowroot or tapioca starch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt

4 oz 99% unsweetened baking chocolate

1 cup fresh raspberries

1)
Place the container of coconut oil in a pot of hot water to get the oil liquified for easier measuring.  In a food processor or blender, add the coconut oil, silken tofu, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, margarine, arrowroot or tapioca starch, vanilla extract, salt and process until smooth.

2)
In a double boiler or small saucepan apply low heat to the chocolate while stirring constantly.  When the chocolate is fully melted add it to the food processor or blender from step 1 and process until well incorporated.

3)
Add the raspberries and pulse for a second until they're in small chunks.

4)
Pour the mixture into a 7” spring form pan and place it in the refrigerator for 4 hours for it to firm up.  Once firmed up, use a small pairing knife to cut around the outside to help separate remove the outer portion of the torte from the spring form pan.  Open the outer portion of the spring form pan and give it a jiggle while lifting it away. 
Store the torte in the refrigerator and serve cold.

i'm planning on making this as one of many birthday dessert treats for my husband, but i have two questions:

1. would frozen raspberries be ok to use, in your opinion?

2. would 85% chocolate suffice?

thanks!

A Heavenly Celebration Dessert

I made this cake for my friends 40th celebration cake. It was divine. Everyone enjoyed every moutnful and there was even some licking of plates...lol.
I doubled the recipe and used a 10" tin as I knew my chocolate loving friends would need more than a 7" cake. And it worked really well.
Everyone should try this recipe...it's easy to make, good to look at and even better to eat. Divine.

Thank you Mattie...I have posted and reviewed it on my blog today

Issues?

Was I supposed to use cocoa powder that is used to make hot chocolate? I'm just a little confused, because my cake came out verrrry bitter. I used all the right ingredients, so I'm not sure if something went wrong, or if its supposed to be so bitter. It tastes like there was almost no sugar added at all! (even though I added the right amount of sugar)

Owner's reply

Hi Sarah, This recipe uses regular cocoa powder. The cake is supposed to be rich but not excessively bitter.

Decadent

I made this yesterday for my anniversary and oooo boy is it good!!! Really rich and gourmet. It's a bit expensive to make considering I didn't have coconut oil on hand and I don't usually use tofu (everr...) but it was far less expensive than eating dessert out. Perfect for any special occasion and will impress even the most cynical anti-vegans.

The best thing I've ever eaten

You are incredible. This is the best thing in the whole entire world. Nobody that I've shared this with can understand how something so amazing can also be vegan. Even the anti-vegan, super cynical chef that I work with was impressed. Every one of your recipes that I've used has been amazing! Thank you so much for being so great

Thanks Naomi! So glad this worked out for you!

So fun!

Oh wow! I was stunned! I didn't think a vegan cake could actually be good. But I was very wrong! My friend (who is a vegan) had her grandmother pass away this weekend so I decided to make her a cake because I just love cooking and she loved it so I tried it. Wow!
