Cheesecake

Give your pie a clever name – and tell us about your crust and filling.

Ace Vegan Blueberry Lime Cheesecake: The crust is nuts and dates! The cheesecake is raw cashews processed until they were creamy along with maple syrup, lime juice, and coconut oil – a small layer of this is added on top of the crust – then fresh blueberries are mixed in the remaining cashew mix, becoming the final layer of goodness. Sprinkle with lime zest and decorate with fresh whole blueberries.

Was your pie underbaked, overbaked or just right? What was your favorite part of the process?

This cheesecake is not baked – just easy freezing followed by thawing an hour before serving.

How did you add a Wisconsin touch to your flavors or decoration?

Wisconsin maple syrup and Madisonian love were added in generous amounts.

How did you do?

Rocked it.
