Triple Layer Cheesecake

Here I go again with another Vegan Cheesecake Recipe!
I know I can’t get enough cheesecake in my life

But this time it’s no bake and it’s delicious!

Although I must correct myself to say that it is actually not 100% no bake

Because I used a brownie layer for the base!
But you can of course use any cookie crust you love the most!

Chocolate, vanilla and mocha layers, but it’s simple to make since it all gets mixed from one base recipe

Notes for Success:

You will have to give yourself some extra prep time because each layer has to set in the freezer before you can pour over the next layer

Be sure to soak the cashew nuts ahead of time.
Not only does this soften them for the recipe, but the soaking process also releases enzyme inhibitors
Which make the nuts easier to digest therefore making them more nutritionally valuable.

Simply pour water over the nuts in a large bowl and soak 8 hours or overnight.
Then drain them and rinse them before using in the recipe

Or for a quick soak method simply pour hot boiling water over the nuts and let them sit for 1 hour.

You will need a heavy duty  blender
Something equivalent to a VitaMix because the key to a successful cashew cream based cheesecake is the smooth texture

Also using a stainless steel cake ring mold to make this cheesecake is necessary
But you can get a way with using a springform pan with the bottom removed for an easy fix!

Acetate cake strips are a great investment and since I often make molded desserts this is something essential in my bakery pantry

While it is not 100% necessary, it will be helpful for clean sides and easy unmolding.

Unfortunatley  YouTube removed my video for some ridiculous reason~ Sorry!
