Last night after dinner, my 14-year-old son made the most outrageous dessert. We loved it because it was a combination of raw and cooked, healthy and decadent. He spontaneously got the idea and went right to it. Basically, it was two (wax paper-lined) platesful of raw, peeled diced apple, with a layer of Vegan Caramel Sauce from Food Geeks, followed by a drizzle of melted chocolate chips, topped with a sprinkling of cinnamon. Then, he put the plates in the fridge for an hour or so, so that the chocolate could harden.

Please refer to Vegetarian Kitchen’s Monthly Message about “politically correct” chocolate.

This was so delicious, and looked pretty, too. With Valentine’s Day coming up, if you need a last minute treat, try this! For proportions, he used 3 large apples, about half the caramel sauce recipe, 3/4 cup chocolate chips, and just a sprinkling of cinnamon. It was just the 3 of us at home last night, so we finished only one plateful. Lucky us, to have this for dessert again tonight, and lucky me to have such a great young dessert chef in the family!
