Thanks! :-) Glad you like the idea of it. ...Sarah,<br /><br />Thanks! :-) Glad you like the idea of it. Dan really enjoyed this recipe last night. <br /><br />Great question about soaking. That would make them softer but it may also make the dough too wet since I was only added one tablespoon of water. I think the cashews would absorb more than that. I think a regular blender will be able to grind the nuts into a flour a consistency. If you try this please let me know if I am right. <br /><br />talk to you soon,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-87430476953633130832010-03-25T09:34:02.435-04:002010-03-25T09:34:02.435-04:00Home run!!!
