Basic Raw Cheesecake with Chocolate glaze


This is simple to make and tastes amazing even with substitutions. This should be done in a cake pan for presentation but I couldn't find mine so I used a glass container.

Crust:
  • 1/2 cup of almonds or other nuts
  • 1 cup of prunes or other dried fruit
  • 1 cup of shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup of melted coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon of coconut nectar
Filling:
  • 2 cups of cashews
  • juice from one lemon
  • 2 tsp vanilla beans or extract
  • 15 dates or other sweetener
  • 1 cup of water
  • about 120 grams of melted cacao butter/coconut oil mix
  • cacao nibs mixed in after blending (optional)
Glaze:
  • about 80 grams of melted cacao butter/ coconut oil mix
  • 5 tablespoons of cacao powder
  • coconut sugar to taste (optional)
  1. Process the crust ingredients and press into a pan. Place in freezer.
  2. Blend the Filling ingredients until smooth and pour onto crust. Place in freezer.
  3. Blend the Glaze ingredients in the same blender without washing it from the filling until smooth.
