Not a fan. Tasted very savory (even with the addition of cream cheese to the frosting and coconut sugar to the "cake"). Frosting tasted overwhelmingly of cashews. Not a good "mock" dessert. Not inedible... But still a failure in my book. It took forever in the food processor also.. trying to add things to make it taste tolerable.

Hey Abbey. Thanks for the feedback. Would not recommend adding cream cheese as it would give the frosting a strange tang and for the sweetener would suggest rice malt or maple syrup. If you don’t love cashews, I would also suggest reducing the cashews by half and subbing in coconut cream instead. In terms of the food processor, I use a Vitamix which are super powerful and seem to easily process the dessert. But can understand other machines don’t work as well 😊

Don't think that was it, as I did everything correctly at first & then made changes after I couldn't stand the taste. I'm not saying my food processor took forever, but that it took me forever to think what I might could add to improve the taste. But I appreciate the reply.
