How to Prepare Caramel Cheesecake [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Throw all of the ingredients in your food processor and blend until it turns into a thick, gooey-looking sauce. Set aside until you are ready for it (you’ll probably have a bit leftover so feel free to sample!)
- Drain and rinse your cashews. Put them in your blender along with the rest of the ingredients and blend until it becomes thick & creamy (get all of the lumps out). Set aside until it’s needed.
- Put all of the ingredients in a food processor and process until the mixture sticks together.
- I took a bit of coconut oil and greased a 6-inch spring form pan (any small cake pan will work and you can line with parchment paper if you prefer). Start by putting the crust on the bottom of the spring form pan. Take half of the chocolate filling and put it on the crust. Put this in the freezer for about 10 minutes. Take your cake pan out of the freezer and spread out as much of the caramel sauce as you’d like for the middle layer (I used most of it). Now put the pan back in the freezer for 20-30 until the caramel hardens. Remove the pan from the freezer and spread the rest of the chocolate filling on top. Allow this to set in the freezer overnight.
- The next day, carefully take your coconut milk can out of the fridge (don’t shake it), remove the lid and scoop out the hard cream that formed at the top (try to only get the cream and not the water below). Put the cream in a mixing bowl, beat it with an electric mixer, adding a bit of agave as you beat the mixture until it becomes fluffy whipped cream. Take your cheezecake out of the freezer and add the coconut whipped cream and place in the fridge until ready to eat.
