Ingredients
filling
- 1 ½ c. soaked* raw cashews (Quick soaked in hot water for 15 minutes, rinse, discard water and allow to cool.)
- ¼ c. fresh lemon juice
- 1 13.5 oz. can of full fat coconut milk. Use only the solid, save the liquid.

- Place the first 5 ingredients in a blender, and pulse, then liquefy. It may take 6-7 minutes to become smooth like thinned cream cheese. If it becomes too thick, add in a few drops of the saved coconut milk liquid.
- When the vegan cheese filling is creamy and smooth, remove half, and place in the refrigerator. Stir some of the blackberry sauce into the remaining filling in the food processor and blend. You can swirl the rest of the sauce on the top of the mini cheesecakes with a toothpick.
