Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1/2 Cup Dry-roasted peanuts 2.5oz
  • 1/3 Cup Lightly packed dates roughly chopped (55g)
  • 1/4 Cup Better Body Foods PB Fit Chocolate Powdered Peanut Butter
  • 1 Tbsp + 1 tsp Water

For the middle:

  • 1 1/2 Cups Coconut cream * 345g
  • 3 Tbsp Better Body Foods Agave

For the topping:

  • 1 Cup Better Body Foods PB Fit Chocolate Powdered Peanut Butter
  • 4-5 Tbsp Water depending how much agave you use
  • Better Body Foods Agave to taste

Instructions

  • Place the peanuts into a large food processor and process until broken down and crumbly.
  • Add in the chopped dates, chocolate powdered peanut butter and water and process until mixed and the mixture begins to form large crumbles.
  • Transfer to a medium bowl and work with your hands until the mixture sticks together in a ball.
  • Divide the dough between 12 muffin cavities, which is about a lightly heaping 2 tsp of dough per cavity. Press down to make a crust at the bottom of each cavity. If the dough begins to stick to your fingers, just wash them and dry them. This makes it a lot easier to press out.
  • Place the coconut cream, along with the agave into a large bowl. Using an electric hand mixer, beat until well mixed and the coconut cream is fluffy, scraping the sides down as necessary. Gently fold in the berries.
  • Divide the mixture between the muffin cavities, filling about 2/3 of the way full. Place into the freezer until completely firm and set, about 2 hours.
  • Once the cheesecakes are frozen, use a sturdy, sharp knife and firmly press it into the side of one of the cavities. Once you loosen one side, the cheesecake should pop right out of the tin.
  • Mix together all of the topping ingredients, sweetening to taste. You want the topping to be pretty thick, so add water accordingly. Pipe (or spoon) onto all of the cheesecakes.
  • DEVOUR. **

Notes

*You will need just over 1 can of coconut cream if you chill coconut milk over night. If you use straight up canned coconut cream, it's about 1 1/2 cans.
**You may need to let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving, depending on what texture you prefer.
