Fall is the time of year when my favorite brightly colored fruit comes into season. Persimmons are loaded with antioxidants, and they are a perfect ingredient for healthy seasonal treats.
The sweetness of this decadent dessert is balanced by the protein and fat from the cashews, almonds, and coconut.
