YIN POWER PASSIONFRUIT CHEESECAKE - Sun Potion

YIN POWER PASSIONFRUIT CHEESECAKE

I made this tropical cheesecake for my friend's engagement party and I have never seen someone so happy — thrilled to be getting married and also in love with this dessert! The ingredients are simple and the recipe is straightforward. All you need is some time, ingredients like fresh passionfruit, and a few handy kitchen tools (a high-speed blender, a food processor and a springform pan).
You can also add other adaptogenic herbs into the crust — Lion's Mane and Ashwagandha both work beautifully here. I chose to use Yin Power in the filling. I love this blend of functional mushrooms and adaptogenic roots. Our society is very Yang in nature, so why not invite a little Yin in — in a delicious and nourishing way?

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this cheesecake need baking?

No. Both the crust and the cashew filling set in the fridge — give the filling a few hours to firm up before slicing.

Do I have to soak the cashews?

Soaking softens them so the filling blends completely smooth. If you have a high-powered blender you can get away with less soaking time.

What is Yin Power?

Yin Power is a Sun Potion blend of functional mushrooms and adaptogenic roots, traditionally used to nourish feminine energy.

Can I swap the passionfruit?

Mango or pineapple both work for a tropical version; lemon gives a sharper, more classic cheesecake note.
