No-Bake Cheesecake {dairy free}

February 19, 2023 by Erica 3 Comments

No Bake Cheesecake & Berry Compote

Here is one of my classic raw cheesecake recipes, based on my New York-style raw cheesecake, with a mixed berry compote. It may seem fancy which is great because it’s so easy to make. You just need a high speed blender to get the cheesecake filling smooth and creamy. I use an old refurbished Vitamix, …

Raspberry Glazed No-Bake Cheesecake {dairy free}

February 13, 2022 by Erica 10 Comments

Raspberry No-Bake Cheesecake

On a whim I created this version of my New York Style Raw Cheesecake and covered it in a raspberry glaze. This is an early run recipe, so you may have other techniques for accomplishing what I’m presenting to you here and I may have further discoveries later on. I’m pretty happy with the results …

Vanilla Cashew Coconut Ice Cream

November 17, 2021 by Erica 4 Comments

Vanilla Cashew Ice Cream

Here’s my latest favorite dairy-free vanilla ice cream. It’s super creamy, and dotted throughout with vanilla seeds. It hardly lasts more than 24 hours in my freezer. Because of this recipe, I stock tons of coconut milk and cashews in my kitchen pantry. I love to use paper ice cream containers to store the ice cream in …

Roasted Figs

September 11, 2021 by Erica 2 Comments

Roasted Figs

Roasting figs transforms these purple bulbs of super fruit into juicy, sweet packets that can then be turned into a snack, an impromptu fruit spread, or full-on dessert. Roasted figs also pair well with creamy cheese, and in this recipe I use cashew cream cheese to keep it dairy free. I’ve been turning to cashews …

New York-Style Raw Cheesecake

Sometimes the simplest cakes are the best cakes. New York-style cheesecake is one of those simple, tangy, creamy cakes with a distinct texture and crust. I grew up in New York City and I’ve had many slices of New York Cheesecake. I never tire of it. It’s a classic. It’s my birthday today. I used …

Pumpkin Cheesecake {dairy free}

November 18, 2020 by Erica 15 Comments

Pumpkin Cheesecake

This is my first time creating a pumpkin cheesecake, and I chose to make it dairy free using cashews and baking it, versus using cashews to make a raw cheesecake. I’m a huge fan of the classic New York-style cheesecake. That said, I’m into non-dairy versions of things, but cheesecake is definitely a challenge to …
