Instructions
 

Prepare the Chocolate Layer:

    - In a food processor, combine the almonds, pitted dates, cocoa powder, almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt.

      - Process until the mixture is smooth and sticky.

        - Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a lined 8-inch square pan to form the first layer. Place in the refrigerator to set.

          Make the Strawberry Layer:

            - Rinse the food processor and add the soaked cashews, strawberries, maple syrup, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.

              - Blend until smooth and creamy.

                - Pour this mixture over the chocolate layer in the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate until set.

                  Prepare the Vanilla Layer:

                    - Clean the food processor again, then add the soaked cashews, coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt.

                      - Blend until very smooth and creamy.

                        - Spread this mixture over the strawberry layer, smoothing it out to create an even layer.

                          Chill the Cake:

                            - Cover the pan and refrigerate all layers for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

                              Slice and Serve:

                                - Once set, remove the cake from the fridge and the pan. Cut into 13 squares or desired shapes.

                                  - Garnish each slice with dark chocolate shavings, fresh strawberries, and mint leaves.

                                    Enjoy:

                                      - Serve chilled for a refreshing, no-bake dessert that perfectly captures the flavors of Neapolitan, while remaining healthy!
