Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease an 8" square pan, lining it with parchment paper.
- Combine flour, ground almonds, vegan butter, maple syrup, and sea salt in a bowl until a soft dough forms. Press evenly into the pan and prick with a fork. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown.
- Simmer fresh raspberries in a saucepan for 10 minutes until soft. Blend until smooth, strain to remove seeds, and add lemon juice and agar-agar powder. Boil for a minute, then simmer for 3 minutes.
- Pour the raspberry jelly over the baked shortbread and evenly spread it. Freeze for about 30 minutes to set.
- Blend cashew butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, coconut milk, and vanilla extract until creamy. Spread over the raspberry layer and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Melt two-thirds of the vegan chocolate, then stir in remaining chocolate for a glossy finish. Spread over the caramel layer and sprinkle with freeze-dried raspberries if desired.
- Slice the shortbread into squares using a heated knife. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days or freeze for longer storage.

Notes
Allow each layer to set completely for the best texture. Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
