RAW VEGAN GERMAN chocolatE PIE的做法  

1. Crust:
   1½ cups unsweetened shredded coconut
   1½ cups raw pecans
   4 tbsp coconut oil, liquified or very soft {but not hot}
   1 tsp pure vanilla extract {or ⅛ tsp raw ground vanilla bean}
   4 tbsp liquid sweetener of your choice {I used maple syrup}
   ¼ cup cocoa powder {or raw cacao powder}
   Chocolate Layer:
   ½ cup coconut oil, liquified {not hot}
   ¼ cup cocoa powder {or raw cacao powder}
   3 tbsp liquid sweetener of your choice, at room temperature
   1 tsp pure vanilla extract
   dash of salt
   German Chocolate Topping:
   ¾ cups chopped pecans
   ¾ cups unsweetened shredded coconut
   1 tsp pure vanilla extract
   4 tbsp liquid sweetener of your choice
   2 tbsp coconut oil, liquified {but not hot}

2. Place all crust ingredients in a food processor and process until mixture is well-combined and sticky. Transfer into a 7″ tart pan with removable bottom {or any dish of similar size; a springform pan can work well here}. Form the mixture into a pie crust by pressing it down with your hands until it’s even all around the edges and the bottom is flat. Place the pan into the freezer to firm up while working on the next step.

3. Place all chocolate layer ingredients into a glass bowl and stir the mixture until everything comes together into a uniform liquid chocolate substance {keep stirring until all lumps are dissolved!}. Pour this mixture into the prepared pie crust and place the pie back into the freezer to firm up while working on the next step.

4. Place all topping ingredients into a mixing bowl, and mix everything to combine. Once the chocolate layer in the pie is firm {should firm up within about 10-15 minutes of being placed in the freezer}, spread this topping mixture on top evenly. Place pie in the fridge and allow it to set about an hour. For a smooth consistency, bring to room temperature prior to serving {let sit at room temp for about 15-20 minutes} {pie will keep it’s shape well at room temp unless it’s extremely hot where you are, in which case keep chilled}. The pie can also be enjoyed right out of the fridge, though the chocolate layer will be firm. Enjoy!
