- Place the cashews in a bowl, cover with water and soak for 6 hours or overnight.
- For the base, blitz the almonds in a blender until they become fine crumbs. Add the coconut flour, coconut oil, maple syrup and almond milk to the blended almonds and mix together until you reach a crumby consistency. The dough doesn't need to stick together.
- Using your fingers, press the mixture into the base of mini cake moulds or trays. Leave the tray in the freezer whilst you prepare the filling.
- For the filling, rinse and drain the soaked cashews. Put them into a blender with the matcha powder, coconut oil, vanilla extract, lime juice and maple syrup and blend until you reach a creamy mixture. There should be no cashew crumbs anymore.
- Spoon the green filling over the base and freeze for about 2 hours until firm.
- You can eat them straight out the freezer if you prefer a more icy consistency but I preferred letting them thaw a few minutes before eating them. Garnish with lime slices for extra finesse.
