- Meanwhile, place the raw cashews, soaked raisins, lemon juice, and water in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped and well combined.
- Assembling the dessert: Place one round pumpkin piece at the bottom of appropriate serving cups. Top it with part of the cashew and raisins mixture. After that, put some raspberries. Again, top with the cashew mixture. Lastly, sprinkle some roughly chopped walnuts.
- Decorate with raspberries and enjoy!
Notes
- To form these round pieces (the size of my serving cups) I used one of the cups. Press the open part of the cup to a larger pumpkin piece and gently twist it to the left and right. Now, your rounds are cut.
