Pistachio Butter Chocolate Bars

These pistachio butter chocolate bars are my new favourite thing to make! They're simple, no-bake and only call for 5 ingredients. They also happen to be vegan, gluten-free and packed with nutrients - not bad for a delicious dessert. Pistachios are such an underrated and under-appreciated nut in my opinion. I may be a little biased in saying this, but they're THE BEST nut out there. I say that because I grew up eating them, so they have a special place in my heart. Now that I live in the UK, it pains me to see how little they're used/eaten in the west in general.  What makes matters worse is how expensive they are, so I guess I can see [...]

Vegan Chocolate Mint Cheesecake

A simple no-bake treat – this vegan chocolate mint cheesecake is so yummy and made using healthier ingredients! With a crumbly base, smooth mint chocolate 'cheesecake' filling all topped with a layer of smooth ganache, this mint chocolate cheesecake is so easy to make and requires no baking. I always make sure that the ingredients I use are accessible and easy to find and the ingredients I use to make this cheesecake are no exception.  I love using brewed tea to flavour desserts. There are so many fun and exciting flavours to play around with instead of using artificial food flavourings. Just use whatever you have in your tea drawer/cupboard. My favourite tea brand at the moment is Ahmad tea. I [...]

Healthier Vegan Lemon Cups

Zesty and creamy lemon cups - like a cheesecake, but so much lighter. These healthier vegan lemon cups are so easy to put together and makes for a lovely chilled treat now that the weather is warming up. It's no secret that I love my decadent chocolatey desserts, but I also love fruity treats, especially when I'm looking for something light after a meal. A simple crumbly no-bake oaty base, topped with a smooth and lush lemony filling made up of cashews, coconut milk and lots of lemon goodness! You don't need to soak the cashews before hand - just add everything to a blender, then heat up in a pan (to allow starch gelatinisation). Pour into muffin moulds and [...]

Vegan Snickers Cheesecake

A creamy cheesecake that's no-bake and made without dairy. This vegan Snickers cheesecake is for all you peanut butter lovers out there!

A simple no-bake oaty, chocolate base, a creamy peanut butter centre and smooth, velvety and rich chocolate topping. Super creamy and rich made using healthier ingredients like cashews, peanut butter, peanut and oats. I used almond milk instead of cream/coconut milk to make it a little lighter. So yummy and easy to make! This cheesecake is also Vegan Dairy-free Gluten-free Wheat-free Soy-free No-bake Easy to make And made using healthier ingredients Vegan Snickers Cheesecake A [...]

Vegan Mini Baklava Cheesecakes

Mini oaty cups filled with smooth cream cheese and topped with roasted pistachios flavoured with orange and aromatic cinnamon and cardamom! Baklava is one of the most popular desserts in the Middle East or any Arab speaking country. It’s such a decadent dessert and one that is served to show hospitality and generosity. Diamond shaped delights made up of layered crispy phyllo pastry, crunchy nuts flavoured with cinnamon and cardamom all drenched in a rose water and orange blossom infused syrup. They're super decadent and delicious, but they're also really heavy, sugary and fatty. I did my best to make a healthier version a couple of years ago (you can find the recipe here), which turned out to be very [...]

Vegan No-Bake Coffee Cheesecakes

*This post is sponsored by Planted* We all need a good pick-me-up at the moment, and these delicious and decadent no-bake vegan coffee cheesecakes are exactly what you need after a long and stressful day! I’ve always loved coffee flavoured desserts. I really do think coffee is such an underrated flavour when it comes to desserts and so I’ve taken it upon myself to add to the coffee treat catalogue to show it a little more appreciation! This is my take on a vegan no-bake cheesecake. Super creamy and lush without having any dairy or gluten! The base is chocolaty as I think chocolate and coffee go perfectly together. Made with oats, cocoa powder with a little bit of coconut [...]

Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake Pots

(AD) A delicious dessert that takes no time at all to put together. A simple treat made up of a 2 ingredient base, a creamy cheesecake centre and a berrylicious topping! Served in pots/glasses for ease. I’ve always preferred no-bake cheesecakes to the baked versions as these taste so much lighter and the no baking part means there’s one less thing to do. For me, the easier the recipe the better, especially when it comes to making desserts. Now that so many of us are spending more time cooking our main meals at home, a lot of us are in search for quick and easy treats that call for few ingredients and little washing up afterwards. Serving these delicious Vegan [...]

5-Ingredient Orange Chocolate Mousse Pots

*This post is sponsored by Conscious Chocolate* Super rich and decadent orange chocolate mousse pots that only call for 5-ingredients and they’re both vegan AND gluten-free! The festive treats keep on coming! I’ve made a fair few Christmas recipes this year from mince pies to a Gingerbread Bundt Cake, but I have to admit that as a chocoholic, my ultimate Christmas treat has to be one that contains chocolate! These 5-ingredient orange chocolate mousse pots are as simple as a dessert can get. There is no baking required and all you have to do is blend biscuits with butter to make the base, and pour a simple melted chocolate and coconut milk mixture on top and leave in the fridge to [...]

No-bake Vegan Berry Cheesecake Jars

  No-bake Vegan Berry Cheesecake Jars A dairy-free, vegan and gluten-free dessert that requires no baking and is really easy to put together. This no-bake vegan berry cheesecake jars are the perfect fuss-free dinner party dessert!  This recipe is perfect for those days when you're craving a cheesecake, but don't want to make a whole cheesecake that serves eight to ten people when you live alone or with a partner and don't have that many mouths to feed. I live on my own so recently I've been turning to single-serve recipes to ensure I don't over eat (which is impossible when I have treats lying around!), but more importantly so nothing goes to waste. Whenever I'm testing recipes, more often than not [...]

Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake Cups (cashew-free/nut-free/gluten-free)

  Vegan Raspberry Cheesecake Cups Mini vegan raspberry cheesecake cups that also happen to be cashew-free, nut-free and gluten-free! If you search for vegan cheesecake recipes online you'll find that most of them are made with the same main ingredient - cashews! Not that there's anything wrong with cashews, but I wanted to make a plant-based cheesecake that resembles the 'real thing' and I found the best way to do that is by using a dairy-free cream cheese alternative. Both the taste and texture is more true to the original, which is what you want really if you're making a 'cheesecake'. Especially if you're making it for a non-vegan and you want to impress them, a cashew cheesecake just won't cut [...]
