Easy Raw Cashew Cheesecake




This is the other dessert I made for our Bike MS Bake Sale. I wanted to make something gluten free and raw people could eat (It could be vegan SUPER easy if you can find vegan cream cheese)

Little did I know it would be ridiculously good and one of the easiest desserts to assemble. Winner for sure! Also no baking required which is always a win in the summer!

crust:
1 cup macadamia nuts
1/2 cup pistachios
1/2 cup dates; pitted
1 tbs coconut oil
pinch of salt

1   beat ingredients in food processor
2   mash the crust into a lightly oiled tart tint along the bottom and up the sides
    and place in freezer

filling:
1 1/2 cup cashews; soaked overnight or for at least 3 hours
1/4 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/2 cup coconut cream
3 tbs agave
2 tbs honey
1/4 tsp vanilla

1   place all ingredients in food processor and beat until smooth
2   pour into tart shell
3   cover with plastic wrap and let set in fridge for at least an hour
top with white chocolate shavings and pistachio!
