    Blackberry Cheesecake, luscious and creamy, no baking involved - yum!
    Dreamy, creamy cheesecake. Yes, that's the dessert for me! You all know how much I adore my cashew-based dairy free cheesecakes. From the very first one I made, I've been hooked. My family also loves them and anytime there is a celebration, mom's no-bake cheesecake is their first requests!
    How many of you have been baking with coconut sugar? Are you enjoying the taste and texture? I have been a fan for years and was so excited when Bob's Red Mill came out with their organic coconut sugar! It gives just the right amount of sweetness and is similar in taste to brown sugar (my fave). You can use it in your recipes as a 1-to-1 replacement. Another tasty refined-sugar alternative.

    Getting back to this blackberry cheesecake, shining in all it's glory. This is not just any blackberry cheesecake. It's a raw, no-bake, refined-sugar free, dairy free, egg free and gluten free cheesecake. That's a whole lot of "free" and a whole lot of amazing flavor. A cheesecake that you can feel good about eating. An almond flour crust and a creamy filling that's loaded with healthy fats and fresh berries. Many of you mentioned cheesecake as being a must-have dessert on Easter. Well, here is a one that will surely steal the show!
