Normally I try not to eat dairy because even though my tolerance of dairy had greatly improved since I went grain free and dairy free, I still don’t think I have completely healed. I have to admit though….occasionally I still eat some dairy. Butter definitely tops the list, but sometimes it’s the occasional cheese or cream. It’s probably setting back my healing a bit, but what can I say…I’m human. I try to get the best quality from grass fed cows, but I still enjoy things like this Grain Free No Bake Cheesecake. It’s so easy to make! You can even enjoy it by the spoonful or with some berries on top.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups of mixed nuts (I used 1/2 cup each of almonds, pecans, and walnuts)
- 1-2 Tbsp granular sweetener or coconut sugar (sweeten to taste)
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/4-1/2 cup powdered sweetener (sweeten to taste) or honey for Primal
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a high speed blender or food processor, blend the mixed nuts, sweetener, and cinnamon until finely ground and sticking together.
- Place 1/4 cup of the nut mixture into the bottom of a small bowl or glass.
- Repeat with 3 other bowls/glasses.
- Beat the cream cheese with the sweetener on medium speed until smooth (about 2 minutes).
- After scraping sides of the bowl, add the the cream and vanilla and whip (I used a whisk attachment on my mixer) on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Divide the mixture evenly among the four bowls/glasses.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate to completely set.
