Healthy Chocolate Raspberry Pie

1 cap raspberries (frozen is perfect)
3/4 cup agave nectar

1/3 cup of stirred cashew butter (generous)
1 can well-rinsed, well drained Canelli beans
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoon stevia powder concentrate
3 oz melted good quality unsweetened chocolate. Scharfenberger is my favorite
2/3 cup cocoa powder

Prepare a crust in an 8-inch pie crust. I used a simple almond crust, and didn’t write down anything. Whoops!
Blend raspberries and agave very well. I use a Vitamix, and wait until they are quite smooth. Transfer to a food processor, add beans and thoroughly blend for 3 min or more. Add in the rest of the ingredients, blend well.

Put chocolate filling into prepared crust, refrigerate a few hours until firm. Decorate with raspberries.
