Raw Food Cheesecake Recipe
"I really like this recipe as it gives a great non-dairy choice for "standard" cheesecake. It uses macadamia nuts for the bulk of the "crust" layer, and cashews are a big part of the "filling" layer.
Although it's not necessary, if you want to prepare the night before, you could soak the nuts in water. It's suggested that soaking raw nuts may bring them into a more "alkaline" state and also make them more easily digested by the body."
