INGREDIENTS:
Cheesecake
1.5 C raw cashews, soaked in water 4-6 hours, and then rinsed and drained.
2 large lemons, juiced (about 1/2 cup)
1/3 C coconut oil, melted
1 can full fat coconut milk (use the cream off the top of the can for a richer texture, but if it will not separate it will work fine as is)
¼ cup powdered xylitol
Zest of 2 large lemons
DIRECTIONS:
Add all ingredients to a blender and mix until very smooth. (A Vitamix or any quality blender will work wonderfully). If it won’t come together, add a splash of coconut milk. Pour onto prepared crust.
Freeze for about 1-2 hours so it sets and is easier to cut.
