I didn't exactly serve this raw, because I thought "It's a frozen dessert, I don't have to defrost it!" Wrong! You can't cut an ice cube! So I microwaved it about 2 minutes. It was still frosty though. Back when making it, I though the filling needed a little more sweetness (probably because most of the other pies I was making had regular old refined sugar in them and that sets the dessert standard). I tried adding 5 dates to the pureed berries, but my food processor didn't want to cooperate with that, so I fished them out. I would probably add them *with* the berries next time. However, at serving time, I very much enjoyed the pie. Maybe because I was expecting it to be subtle.

Made for Gimme 5. I had to use my blender as I still don't have a food processor. The dates didn't get processed as well, but it was still good. I forgot the cinnamon too. I had to add a little more rice milk than called for and added some honey to cut the tartness. I think I will add a little more honey next time, but the family liked it (except for DD who didn't like it frozen). This is a great, healthy dessert to give the kids. Thanks Syd!

A great raw treat and the parts are just as good as the whole ;)- {{ meaning I tagged this playing "I recommend Tag a couple of weeks ago and have made it several times; as a pie, or using the crust for other raw pie delites or making versions of just the berry ice "cream" }}---> I <b>LOVE</b> the playfulness and the joy of a raw food creative treat - Thanks for the great recipe idea share! :)
