To me this tastes just like frosting, which I don't really like at all. Instead I'm dedicating this post to my Aunt Sue who absolutely loves frosting, and will probably like the ingredients in this healthy alternative.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup coconut milk
1/3 cup Medjool dates, pitted and chopped
1 cup raw cashews
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender, and blend together until very smooth. If it is too thick, add a touch more coconut oil to thin it slightly. If you can't find Medjool dates, use ordinary dates, but these have the best flavor and texture. Store in the refrigerator.

hello! i somehow wandered to your site, and glad i found it! i'm also gluten/soy/dairy free and have a blog (http://byebyegluten.blogspot.com). i've really enjoyed looking at your recipes-- i have been playing with cashews a lot recently as well... does this come out looking and with the same texture as frosting? i'm not big on it myself, but i was thinking about making a layer cake with one soon.
hi! your recipe looks great but i am confused by one point --- in the list of ingredients you wrote "coconut milk" and in the explanation below you wrote "coconut oil".
i just found this recipe and would like to make this it this weekend, but am not sure which one to use.
thank you!
