How to make

  1. Line an 8×8 inch baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside.

  3. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan using your hands or the back of a spoon.
  4. In a small saucepan, add the dragonfruit, raspberries, and maple syrup on medium heat stirring for 2-3 minutes. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 5 minutes until the fruit breaks down into a syrup. Set aside.
  5. Blend the cashews, vanilla protein mix, coconut cream, coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest together in the food processor until smooth.
  6. Pour the cheesecake mixture into the pan, spreading evenly, then add dollops of the dragonfruit sauce on top of the cheesecake mixture.
  7. Using a knife, begin to make figure eights or swirls through the cheesecake layer to achieve a marble look.
  8. Place in the freezer for 2-4 hours to firm up.
  9. **Before serving, allow to thaw for 10-15 minutes for a softer texture. Store in freezer for up to 1 month.
  10. Enjoy it 😋
