Summer days are HOT! So no one really wants to turn on their oven, especially not me in a small downtown Toronto condo. So this no-bake, dairy-free, vegan blueberry açai cheesecake is perfect for cooling down on a hot day!
WHY YOU WILL LOVE THIS RECIPE
It’s a refreshing cake for hot summer days. I love adding blueberries to dessert recipes because they are full of flavour and beneficial antioxidants! This Vegan Blueberry Açai Cheesecake also uses cashews which are great for making this frosty “cheese” cake.
TIPS ON HOW TO MAKE THIS RECIPE
- I always use unsweetened almond milk and yogurt, but you can use sweetened and vanilla if you prefer the taste
