Chocolate Cheesecake(raw)

I made this today for my chocolate class on National Chocolate Day. It was a huge hit!

Chocolate Cheesecake filling

1.5 cups raw cashews

1 cup coconut water

1/2 cup raw cacao

15 dates

Blend ingredients in a high powered blender or food processor and serve chilled in a raw pie crust. Top with fresh fruit and cacao nibs.

Raw pie crust

1 cup raw walnuts

3 dates

Blend in a high powered blender or food processor.

Vanilla Cashew Ice Cream

2 cups raw cashews

1 whole vanilla bean

3/4 cup rolled oats

2 cups almond milk

15 dates

blend all ingredients and then add 32oz ice and blend briefly until the ice is blended

I made this ice cream for the first time today and put it on the cake. It was amazing! I came up with the cheesecake recipe three months ago. This is the easiest base for a healthy cheesecake: cashews, coconut water, and dates. Anything after this is just unnecessary. I have done a pumpkin, key lime, sweet potato, carrot, pineapple, and chocolate version of this. They are all amazing!
