1. To soak the cashews. Place the cashews in medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Boil ⏱️ 2 minutes, then cover and remove from the heat. Let the cashews soak for at ⏱️ 30 minutes or up to overnight. Drain well. 2. Meanwhile, make the crust. Line an 8-inch spring form pan with parchment paper. In a food processor, combine the walnuts, coconut, dates, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. Pulse until finely ground and the mix forms a ball, about ⏱️ 2-3 minutes.

Pulse until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Taste, adding more maple syrup if needed to sweeten. Pour the mixture evenly over the crust. Press a piece of plastic wrap over the mousse. Transfer to the fridge and chill for at least ⏱️ 2 hours, or overnight.If you mouse is still pudding like, transfer to the freeze and freeze until firm.4. In a small, microwave safe bowl, melt together the chocolate and peanut butter until smooth, about ⏱️ 30 second to ⏱️ 1 minute. Let cool ⏱️ 5 minutes and then spread the chocolate overtop the cake. Return to the fridge to set up, about ⏱️ 10 minutes or until ready to serve. 5. Slice and serve! Keep the cake stored in the fridge (or in the freeze if your mousse is on the looser side*).
