If you want to make your own blanched almonds visit HERE.
Put you blanched almonds in a 1/2 pint / 300ml /
10 floz of boiling water for a couple of hours.
But if you want a completely smooth frosting/cream cheese the you will need soft almonds.
If your almonds are not soft after a couple of hours you can soak them overnight in boiling water.
Put your almonds into a blender and blend them until they are pulp.
Now add the agave/maple syrup, lemon juice, vanilla extract, pinch of salt and melted coconut oil.
Keep blending until you have a smooth paste.
Next add the coconut milk a little at a time until you have the thickness you wish for.
If you want it thick enough for a filling to a double layer cake then it needs to be quite thick so only add a little bit of coconut milk if at all.
I made a slightly thick mixture, then put it in the fridge over night.
The next morning/later your mixture should be thicker.
There you have it.
