A Note from Feedfeed

These completely raw, no-bake cheesecakes come together in no time! The simple crust is made by combining toasted almonds, dates, and some water together. The filling is a combination of vegan cream cheese, coconut sugar, pumpkin puree, and spices. This could even be made in a tart pan for the Thanksgiving table.
