And so what do we need? For the filling you will need soaked cashews, coconut milk, cacao butter, coconut syrup, vanilla extract and cacao powder. Cacao butter can be replaced with coconut oil. Before cooking, soak cashews in cold water for 8 hours or overnight. To prepare the dessert, you also need a 16 cm (6 inches) round pan and parchment paper.

How to make No Bake Chocolate Cheesecake

To make No Bake Chocolate Cheesecake, we start with the crust.

Preparing the crust

First, remove the pits from the dates. Then soak the dates in hot water for 15 minutes to make them softer and easier to peel off. Then remove the skins from the dates.

This is especially true for simple dates. Although I also peel Medjool dates. Next, place the dates in a blender bowl and add refined coconut oil. Grind everything until smooth.

After this, mix almond flour and crushed rolled oats in a bowl. Add dates and butter to the flour mixture. Gather all the ingredients into one lump. Next, place the crust in the pan and smooth it out with a silicone spatula. Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes. And start filling.

Preparing the chocolate layer

Place soaked cashews, coconut milk, melted cacao butter, coconut syrup, vanilla extract and cacao powder in a blender jar. Grind everything until smooth. Then spoon the chocolate filling onto the crust and spread evenly across the pan. Place the pan in the freezer for 1 hour. After this time, we will make a vanilla layer.

Vanilla layer

The process for preparing the vanilla layer is the same as for the chocolate layer. Only we won’t add cacao powder. So. Using a blender, puree the soaked cashews, coconut milk, melted cacao butter, coconut syrup and vanilla extract until smooth. Next, place the filling on top of the chocolate layer. Place the pan in the freezer for 1 hour until hardened.

Once set, remove the cheesecake from the pan and sprinkle cocoa powder on top. Lightly heat a knife in warm water before cutting into the cheesecake. Then the cuts on the pieces will be smoother.
