Two desserts this week. You smart people are excited. You dessert nazis are annoyed. Haters. Well luckily, this dessert has no added sugar in it. So really, it could just be a side dish for all you people who hate desserts and deny yourself happiness. And if you’re doing the sugar detox like me, this is a perfect dessert for you. If you aren’t doing the sugar detox, you are a much happiner person AND are lucky because you can add honey and chocolate chips to make it stupid good. You b*tches.
That paragraph was all over the place.
So this dessert is made from carrots. Obviously. Carrots are slightly sweet. That’s why some genius out there started making cakes from carrots. Have you ever tried my carrot cake cupcakes? HOLY BALLS. Maybe one of my favorite desserts. Maybe. Anywho, on this sugar detox, I can still have carrots. Woot woot. Puree that sh*t. Add some to vanilla to that sh*t. And love that sh*t. That’s what I did. Like a kid in a candy shop. And I hear carrots are good for your sight. I can see through walls now. Fact.
I kinda miss Drew Barrymore in movies. I like her.
Wanna know something gross? I have a scab on my inner thigh from rope climbs. And now it’s peeling off. It’s a blessing in disguise that I can’t fit into jeans because that could get real uncomfortable. I don’t know why I’m telling you this.

I just wanted to tell you that I have a total girl crush on you…and you are a definite inspiration. Thank you for sharing all of your recipes!
what kind of sun butter do you use? or do you make yours??
The brand is just called Sunbutter and we get the organic, non sweetened kind!
You crack me up!!! I have been seriously considering switching to paleo for a little while now. There are many benefits and my friends that eat paleo swear by it. I have been worried about not being able to eat chocolate but your posts and videos are inspiring and assuring me that it is possible to do it. All it takes is a hard work and perseverance. Thank you!
My dearest Juli Bauer, I am going to an amusement park on Saturday and need to pack a lunch in a cooler. Do you have any recommendations for recipes of yours that can be eaten or would still taste good cold?
Juli,
I have been following (ok, stalking) your blog as of late because (a) I love your witty humor; (b) your recipes are DA BOMB; and (c) see a & b. I made my own coconut butter tonight and quite possibly killed my food processor in the process so I will be making this tomorrow if it some how revives overnight. You also inspired me to start the 21 day detox which I will also be taking on starting tomorrow. Keep up with the awesome recipes, amusing posts, and kick ass dance moves!!
Juli, feed this to good looking men and watch the marriage proposals roll in. It is wicked good.
this is going to save me since I am sugar detoxing too, week four I may add…keep it coming lady – and keep those videos rolling!!!!!
P.S. I’m so glad you demonstrated the storing in the refrigerator part – I was seriously confused about that
I added a little bit of organic ripe pineapple….OMG-OMG!!! Again…you rock and can dance you liar!!!
