This very berry cheesecake is a recipe from Raw Soul in Harlem, New York, a down-right, incredible, and delicious raw restaurant with a flare for southern spice and flavor but also a knack for creating wonderful treats, whatever they may be. I made my first one this week and have been trying to slowly enjoy it day...

This very berry cheesecake is a recipe from Raw Soul in Harlem, New York, a down-right, incredible, and delicious raw restaurant with a flare for southern spice and flavor but also a knack for creating wonderful treats, whatever they may be.

I made my first one this week and have been trying to slowly enjoy it day-by-day (as well as passing it out to friends/neighbors) so as to not eat too many "unchewed" nuts.

My 2 1/2 year old likes the flavor, but not the texture, so he licks it! Too funny.

Also, it's so easy. It really only takes minutes (minus the freezing and soaking times, which aren't work anyway).

You'll have an extremely yummy "cheesecake" for dessert, breakfast, or really any time of the day. It's so good.

That is interesting in not on the lists. It's close to one of the most famous in the city, despite it's very northern location. I think it's about 7 years old or so, so maybe it was created after you left. And yes, the recipe is good, REAL good. I hope you can try it, soon. It's very easy to make, but a price pricey with the macadamia nuts.
