Optional: Soak the cashews in filtered/purified water for 30-60 minutes. This will make them soft and the mixture extra creamy and smooth. Drain and rinse them before adding to the recipe.
For the crust:
Add all the ingredients for the crust to a food processor and process until it becomes a wet, crumbly texture.
Transfer the mixture to a 6-inch springform cheesecake pan and press firmly and evenly in the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
For the cheesecake filling:
Add all the ingredients for the filling to a Vitamix and blend on high speed until it is creamy and smooth.
Pour the filling into the cheesecake pan on top of the crust and gently tap it on the counter so it settles to the bottom evenly.
Put the cheesecake pan in the freezer for 1-2 hours, or until it hardens.
Remove it from the freezer and let it sit on the counter for about 5-10 minutes to soften it slightly before cutting and serving.
Store in an air-tight BPA-free container in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to serve because it will become soft and lose its shape if left out at room temperature.
Optional toppings:
Sprinkle the top with organic shredded coconut, extra spirulina, organic hemp seeds, organic chia seeds, organic cacao nibs, etc. before serving.
