I made my very first Raw Cheese Cake it is so yummy. Here is the recipe and the link to my video “How to Make a Raw Cheese Cake.”
Crust
2 cups of raw walnuts or any nut of your choice (unsoaked)
1 cup of dried shredded coconut flakes
1/2 cup of dates (add more if needed)
1/4 teaspoon of salt
I add all ingredients to the food processor (s-blade) and processed until the mixture stuck together. Place mixture in your pie plate and let it chill in the refrigerator until your filling is ready.

Filling
3 cups of raw cashews (soaked)
3/4 cups of fresh lemon juice
3/4 cups of coconut oil
3/4 cups of raw honey or a sweetener of your choice
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of salt
Blend in the blender until smooth and creamy. Taste the mixture to see if you need to add any additional sweetener. You may need to add a little water to if you want the mixture thinner. Pour mixture into the crust and place in the freezer until it is firm.
Recipe from my friend Bernease.
Strawberry Sauce
1/2 cup of raw cashews soaked (what I had left over)
1 cup of fresh strawberries
vanilla extract to taste
sweetener of your choice to taste
coconut cream concentrate your preference
a little water
Place ingredients in the blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Spread this mixture on top of your cheese cake and place in freezer.
Recipe from my kitchen. I was being creative and it turned out very well.
This cheese cake is a great alternative for those who are giving up the dairy. Give this a try, you will be so glad you did.
What a great recipe! I have to try it…Thanks for sharing.

This is a really great recipe! I’m lactose intolerant, but could eat some cheese and yogurt. Though, I haven’t even had those, because it started to bother me when I changed my diet to a pescovegetarian diet.
Hi Christa,
Welcome to this blog!
It is very yummy. I made it this past weekend and used both lemon and orange juice. Turned out pretty good!
Thanks for sharing and stopping by!

THis is a great cheese cake I have made it 3 times. I do have one small bit of advice for it, use a high quality coconut oil not cheap stuff or the cake won’t set…
Thanks for the advice! The quality of oil really does make a difference. Thanks for stopping by.
MMM GOOD!! LOOKS SO YUMMY!!
