When the mixture has acquired a uniform consistency, place it in a baking dish and distribute it evenly over the bottom.

The mold needs to be taken to the refrigerator, after which you can start working on the filling.

How to prepare the filling

For the filling, you will need 2 cups of cashews, which should be soaked in water for 4-6 hours in advance.

After this time, drain the water, rinse the cashews and combine in one container with 0.5 cups of coconut milk, 0.25 cups of honey, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Now all the listed ingredients need to be whipped – use a mixer until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

After this, you can pour the filling onto the base.

Spread it out evenly and leave it in the refrigerator overnight to let the cheesecake set.
