  • 1 cup soaked raw pitted medjool dates
  • 2 cups raw almonds 
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp water, if needed

Lime layer:

  • 1 cup cashew nuts, soaked (soak overnight, or boil for 10 minutes)
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed key lime juice
  • 1/3 cup full fat coconut milk
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp melted cacao butter

Blue spirulina layer:

  1. Add all ingredients in a processor and process until smooth. 
  2. Pour mixture over the refrigerated crust. Place in the freezer for at least 3-4 hours.

Key Lime Layer:

  1. Repeat the same process for the key lime layer. Pour mixture over the set blue spirulina layer and freeze overnight. 
  1. 4. When ready to serve, remove cheesecake from mold and place it on top of the base and garnish with red fruit of choice and freshly grated lime zest. Allow to thaw for a few minutes before eating.
  1. Enjoy!

Notes

Be sure to soak, or boil your dates—especially if they have been around for awhile!
