How to Prepare Raw Raspberry Cream Cheesecake [Vegan]
To Make the Crust:
- Prepare the crust by processing the dates, nuts and coconut in a food processor. Add water, if needed, until you have a sticky consistency.
- Transfer mixture to a cheesecake pan and leave in the freezer while you make the filling.
To Make the Filling:
- Blend the cashews, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, milk, vanilla, and stevia drops until you have a very creamy consistency.
- If you want to have a white layer and a pink layer, at this time, remove half of the cheesecake filling and spread it on top of the crust. Add the raspberries and blend until creamy and smooth.
- Spread the filling over the crust and freeze for 24 hours. Once ready, leave outside the freezer for 5 minutes and remove from pan while frozen.
- Top cheesecake with your favorite fruits or any other topping you want.
- Let it sit for about 20-30 minutes before cutting and serving so you get a super creamy and not frozen consistency.
