How to Prepare Strawberries and Cream Cheesecake [Vegan]

To Make the Crust:

  1. Put the dates, hazelnuts, vanilla, cocoa powder, and salt in a food processor and grind until you get a sticky dough-like consistency. Don't over-process though, make sure you retain some texture.
  2. Line a cake mold with parchment paper (6-inch diameter round mold with release).
  3. Lay the crust mix on the bottom of the mold and press with your hands to make it firm.

To Make the Vanilla Filling:

  1. Put all the vanilla cream ingredients in a high-speed blender. Blend until smooth. Pour the mixture on top of the crust. Tap the mold on the counter a few times to release any trapped air bubbles.
  2. Loosely wrap the cake with stretch film and place in the freezer for 4 hours. You can store it in the freezer for up to 1 month.
  3. Thaw at room temperature for at least 15 minutes and top with fresh strawberries before serving.
