I learned something this weekend. Cashews are amazing. They are so amazing that with a few other ingredients, you can turn them into a frozen, raw “cheesecake”. Mind totally blown.
Ever since I saw this beauty last year, I have wanted to make a raw cheesecake of my own. The only thing that got in my way at the time was the lack of a high speed blender. Well, I totally made my own this past weekend and it rocked. You will never believe that: (a) it’s completely raw, (b) it tastes sort of like cheesecake but without the unhealthy cream cheese/sugar/eggs combo, and (c) it’s gluten free, grain free, vegan, and refined sugar free! It’s pretty much the most I’ve been excited to eat something in a while. No lie. If you decide to make this (and you totally should), be warned that the 4 hours it needs to set up in the freezer will seem like an eternity, but it’s totally worth it in the end.
