Calories: 352kcal
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup raw cashews
- 4 dates
- 1½ cups filtered water
- 1½ tablespoons lucuma powder
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt plus a pinch or two more, as needed
Instructions
- If not using a high-speed blender, soak the cashews and dates for several hours or overnight in filtered water. Drain (discard water) and place in a blender with 1½ cups filtered water. (If using a high speed blender, you can skip the soaking step.) Begin blending on low speed, gradually increasing speed to high and blending for several minutes until completely smooth.
- Stop the blender and add the remaining ingredients. Blend again to combine. Pour into a glass jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Shake well before using, as some separation might occur.
- For Chocolate Caramel Martini: Shake 2 parts good quality vodka, 1 part crème de cacao, and 1 part Caramel Cashew Cream with ice. Strain into a chilled glass.
