Introduction

No Bake Carrot Cake

I love no-bake desserts especially as the weather gets warmer (and my time gets more limited…2 kids!). Since Easter’s coming up, I’ve put a twist on the classic carrot cake by making it no-bake and using no refined sugar. With COCONO’s coconut yogurt for the icing, this recipe is also 100% vegan!

  • Almond flour, 1/2 cup

ICING
