For the Filling:

• 200 g (1 ½ cups) cashews, soaked
• 240 g (1 cup) coconut cream or full-fat coconut milk
• 120 g (½ cup) plain soy or coconut yogurt
• 60 g (3 tablespoons) pure maple syrup

For the Mango Curd:

• 30 ml (2 tablespoons) lime juice
• 1 tablespoon lime zest (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust: Process coconut flakes, cashews, and salt in a food processor to a crumbly mix. Add dates and blend into a dough. Press into an 8″ square pan lined with parchment paper and set aside.
2. Make the Filling: Blend all filling ingredients until smooth. Pour over the crust, tapping to remove air bubbles. Freeze for about an hour.
3. Create Mango Curd: Combine sugar, cornstarch, agar-agar, and water in a saucepan; whisk well. Add mango pulp and lime juice, simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continuously until thickened. Cool slightly for 15 minutes.
4. Assemble the Cheesecake: Pour mango curd over the set filling and smooth with a spatula. Freeze for 3 hours or overnight.
5. Serve: Remove from the freezer, trim the edges, cut into slices, and garnish with lime zest.
