Ingredients

Vegan Cheesecake Filling:
  • 1 cup raw cashews soaked overnight
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted and cooled
  • 3 tablespoons lime or lemon juice
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons pure maple syrup or agave nectar to taste
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons to 4 unsweetened almond milk or water*
  • Pinch sea salt
Vegan "Cheesecake" Stuffed Strawberries
  • 32 ounces fresh ripe strawberries
  • Vegan "cheesecake" filling recipe above
  • fresh blueberries optional
  • 1 tablespoon coconut sugar optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Soak the cashews for 8 to 12 hours. Drain and rinse.
  2. Add cashews to a high-powered blender along with the remaining cheesecake filling ingredients. Blend until completely smooth. It will take several cycles of blending (about 2 full minutes of blend time) to get the mixture smooth. If necessary, add more almond milk or water to get the ingredients to blend.
  3. Transfer "cheesecake" filling to a container and refrigerate until completely chilled, about 2 hours.
  4. Rinse the strawberries well and pat dry with a paper towel. Chop the tips and tails off and use a pairing knife or melon baller to scoop the insides (hull) out of each strawberry.
  5. Stuff each strawberry with the vegan "cheesecake" filling and top with fresh blueberries and/or coconut sugar. You can also drizzle each strawberry with melted white or dark chocolate.
  6. Serve chilled and enjoy!

Notes

  • *If necessary, add more almond milk (or water) one tablespoon at a time if mixture is too thick.
