Chocolaty "Cream" Pie with Raw Nut Crust

This is a real treat! The crust is raw and gluten free, and can be used in any pie or tart recipe, and the filling is raw with the exception of the carob powder and Roma. Bet you can't eat just one piece!

3 large ripe avocados
1/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp coconut oil
1/2 cup carob powder
3 Tbs Roma instant coffee substitute (to make gluten free, use 1 1/2 Tbsp brewed roasted dandelion tea)
1 cup molasses or agave
1/2 tsp salt

Put all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth and no chunks remain. Pour into crust, and put in freezer for at least 30 minutes before serving. This makes it easier to cut.

Crust:
1 cup almonds
1 cup walnuts
1 1/2 Tbsp coconut oil
2 Tbsp molasses or agave

Grind nuts in your blender or food processor until fine. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Press into a pie pan.
