Vegan Chocolate Cheesecake
5 steps
Prep:10minCook:40min
Most cheesecake is filled with so much cream cheese and sour cream that you'll be disgusted every time you look at the dessert. In comparison, this vegan cheesecake uses chickpeas and tofu as a creamy and neutral tasting base. It's also added sugar free, being sweetened with dates instead of highly refined white sugar. With just a few simple ingredients and 10 minutes, you can whip up a light and refreshing cheesecake with only 60 calories, 3 g of protein, and 2 g of fat per slice
