apparently i only blog well in the dreary winter months...  i hope that you have been enjoying your summer as much as i have:)  im so sorry for keeping this diamond from you for so long words cannot even describe how incredible this pie is! its hard to believe that this pie is raw, or even to believe that its not from a famous bakery.  the crust is deep and chocolatey, reminiscent of brownies with an added crunch that has you searching for oreos in the recipe. the filling is smooth with a little tang to offset its dreamy sweetness.  i promise you, this pie will not last long in your house! ALMOND BUTTER PIE crust: 1 1/2 c walnuts 1 1/2 c pecans 1/2 c dates 1/2 c cocoa 2 tsp honey 2 tsp vanilla 1/2 tsp sea salt 1 tbs cacao nibs *grind walnuts and pecans in food processor until fine and crumbly. add in all other ingredients except cacao nibs. process until a dough starts to form. *press crust in the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate.
