Vegan Smoky Black Pepper Cream Cheese

Name: Vegan Smoky Black Pepper Cream Cheese
Prep time: 10 min
Total time: 10 min
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 cup (140g) raw, unsalted cashews; 2 tablespoons water; 2 tablespoons (30g) non-dairy unsweetened unflavored yogurt (I highly recommend the almond kite hill yogurt, it is VERY creamy and rich. Don't use a low-fat brand.); 1 1/2 tablespoons (23g) fresh lemon juice; 1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar; 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke; 2 teaspoons dill pickle juice OR 1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar, which really aids in the cream cheese flavor; 1/2 tablespoon nutritional yeast; 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (increase to 1/2 teaspoon for a strong peppery taste or omit); 1/4 + 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt; I use this scale
