Raw Chocolate Cherry Malt Recipe
Here is a recipe to celebrate the last of the summer's organic cherries. While I wouldn't call this recipe affordable per say, it is a delicious treat that I like to enjoy at least once (ok twice;-) a year when antioxidant rich cherries are in season. On of my favourite raw food chefs, Ani Phyo inspired this creation, Enjoy!
