Pumpkin Spice Vegan Cheesecakes

Indulge in this delightful vegan cheesecake with an alluring pumpkin spice flavor and a hint of creamy coconut.

Ingredients

For the Crust:

• 100g Plain biscuits (gluten-free if preferred)
• 1 tsp Mixed all spice
• 50g Dairy-free butter or margarine

Cheesecake Filling:

• 125g Cashew nuts (pre-soaked)
• 250g Vegan cream cheese
• 75g Icing sugar
• 50g Coconut cream
• 1 tsp Pumpkin spice powder
• 1/2 tsp Mixed spice powder
• 1 tbsp Pumpkin purée
• 50ml Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew (from Califia Farms)

Pumpkin Cream Topping:

• 100ml Premium dairy-free whipping cream
• A hint of orange food color

Directions

1. Preparing the Crust:
   • Melt dairy-free butter in a pan over low heat. Transfer to a heat-resistant bowl.
   • Process biscuits and mixed spice in a blender until fine. Mix with the melted butter until it forms a sand-like texture that holds when pressed.
   • Firmly press about 1 & 1/2 tablespoons of this mixture into each cookie cup mold. Freeze briefly as you prepare the filling.
2. Crafting the Cheesecake:
   • Ensure cashew nuts have been soaked overnight. (Refer to recipe notes for specifics.)
   • Drain cashews and blend with vegan cream cheese, icing sugar, coconut cream, spices, pumpkin purée, and the Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew. Process until silky smooth, pausing occasionally to scrape the sides. If too thick, add a touch more coconut cream.
   • Pour the creamy mixture evenly into the molds. Tap them gently to eliminate air bubbles.
   • Refrigerate overnight for perfect setting.
3. Cream Topping and Presentation:
   • Whisk the dairy-free whipping cream in a mixer until it starts to thicken. Introduce the orange food color and whisk until stiff peaks form.
   • Spoon the colored cream into a piping bag equipped with a star tip. Pipe a tall, peaked dollop onto each cheesecake.
   • For the pumpkin touch, segment a vegan chocolate bar (like Vegan KitKats) and lodge a piece atop the orange cream to mimic a pumpkin stem.
   • Serve chilled alongside a refreshing glass of Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew. Relish every bite!
