No Guilt Chocolate Cheesecake

Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe

This is a yummy, creamy, chocolatey recipe that is Dairy-free, Sugar-free, Gluten-free.

Here is a tip! I don’t like to wash my food processor. So the first thing I do is put on my shedder attachment and shred my zucchini. Then I take it out and begin with the crust! There is something about shredding zucchini in a chocolate covered, dirty food processor. It wouldn’t matter, but I can’t do it…LOL. So I do that first. Then I make my crust. This crust is so yummy, and you can use it for lots of other recipes as a crust. Keep that in mind for the future.

Next is the filling. I love that you don’t have to soak the cashews first because usually when I decide to make it, I want to make it now and I don’t often plan that far ahead.

So now we throw it in the freezer. It usually take a good 4 hours to set hard. So what I do at this point is I cut the whole thing into 1 inch by 1 inch squares and take them all out of the pan and put them into a tupperware or into a ziplock freezer bag. Now I have a quick snack to grab out anytime I need one or when I need a chocolate fix. It really does help to have a yummy chocolatey HEALTHY snack on hand and readily available whenever you need one!

It will satisfy those chocolate craving…I Promise!
