"I'm not vegan, but have many friends that are, so I've been on a quest of desserts that ALL of us can enjoy together! These fit the bill. NOTE: to soak cashews, not included in prep time, just place them in a glass bowl and pour boiling water over them. Let soak for two hours and drain."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Line a 12-cup muffin pan with 10 muffin papers.
Step 2
For the crust, pulse all ingredients in a blender or food processor until sticky and fully combined. Crumble mixture into the bottom of the muffin papers, dividing evenly. Tamp down lightly.
Step 3
For the filling, Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until creamy and smooth - about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Pour the filling over the top of the crusts, dividing evenly. Freeze for 2 hours, until firm.
The cheesecakes can be kept in the freezer for 1 month. These will melt if left at room temperature, so keep frozen until you're ready to eat.
Step 5
You can top them with seasonal fruit, a thin lemon slice or enjoy as-is.
