  • Add the cashews, coconut oil, strawberries, maple syrup, and vanilla to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • If it's not pink enough, add a couple more strawberries. Taste and adjust the sweetness to your liking.
  • Line a loaf pan with cling film. Pour the cheesecake into the loaf pan. Cover with some more cling film and place in freezer. Freeze until completely solid. Once completely frozen, remove from loaf pan, and cut into 32 squares.
  • Place back in the the freezer on a parchment line baking tray as you melt the dark chocolate in the microwave.
