A lovely icing recipe
« on: October 03, 2013, 01:30:54 am »
from http://www.wholefoodsimply.com/caramel-mud-cake-wholefood-simply-style/

I didn't enjoy the cake but the icing is to die for. And would be good on any number of cakes including Magic Bean Cake - could add cocoa/cocao to make choccy.

Quote
Caramel Frosting

3 heaped tablespoons hulled tahini

3 heaped tablespoons honey

3 heaped tablespoons coconut oil

1 teaspoon vanilla

Blend all ingredients until smooth. Pour the mixture directly over the cooled cake for a runny icing or refrigerate the mixture and allow it to set slightly for a thicker frosting consistency.

Isn’t it heavenly? Enjoy!!
Just do tahini to taste - maybe start at 1-2 TB if you are not used to it?

Thanks for sharing. It sounds yummy and much better for us than traditional icing.

It is good. Start by adding 1 TB of tahini and go by taste. Some people won't like 3 TB.
