    I saw the most adorable thing today. Non-dog people will disagree with me but it was adorable. A lady was out walking through our neighborhood with two dogs and pushing a stroller at the same time, which I have to say is really impressive. I can't even manage a stroller and one dog, let along two! So as I was driving by her, a third dog popped it's head out of the stroller! It was so dang cute. You could see the excitement on its face. But it triggered so many questions - Why was the dog in a stroller? Three leashes too much to handle? Did the dog have a hard time getting around? Maybe it's legs were the shortest so it got first dibs on the wheels (it was a tiny dog). Or was it the lady's favorite, most spoiled dog out of the three? Or maybe all three were taking turns.

    Needless to say, that image (and subsequently, those questions) have been replaying in my mind all day. I'm also trying to imagine what Nutella (my 65 pound pit bull/french mastiff mix) would look like rolling around in a stroller and although I think it'd be hilarious, I have no desire to try it. I'm sure she doesn't either.

    I wasn't sure what season this golden milk cheesecake belongs in. Golden milk is rich, warm, comforting, and somewhat spicy which makes me think of the colder months. However, no-bake anything belongs to the summer months! Nobody wants to turn their oven on during the summer. Except for me apparently. As a blogger, I'm getting tired of the whole posting with the seasons thing. That's not how I eat so it's hard for me to think that way. I think it shows in my recipes lately too! But really, unless it's an ingredient you can't get frozen when out of season, I pretty much eat whatever I like whenever I like.

    In addition to this being no-bake, it is also dairy free (as are all of my recipes since I'm allergic! Yay? 🤔) So it's really a "no-bake golden no-milk no-cheese cake". With no gluten. But that's an awful lot of negativity in one title so I'm not changing it. I guess I should also throw in the fact that it's paleo friendly and if you swap the honey for maple syrup, it can be vegan too.

    Anyways, the dairy is replaced with a cashew based filling. If you've never made a cashew based cheesecake before, I think you'll be really surprised at how smooth and creamy it comes out! The cashews are soaked to soften them which allows them to blend easily. The filling also has coconut oil in it for texture. Coconut oil has a melting point of around 76ºF which means that this chilled cheesecake literally melts in your mouth.

    My friend Kylie from Kylie Walker Wellness has a recipe for turmeric tea that I tried one time and was instantly hooked! That's what inspired me to make something golden milk flavored. Her recipe uses turmeric, ginger, pumpkin pie spice, and black pepper. I think golden milk is typically turmeric, cinnamon, and black pepper but I just loved the addition of ginger in hers so I included it here too. I stuck with the cinnamon instead of using her idea for the pumpkin pie spice but I'd imagine either way would be great.

    For the spices, I kept it a little mild. All the golden milk I've had was pretty packed with spice but I wanted to make sure that a recipe serving 8+ was more of a crowd pleaser in terms of the spice. This is in the instructions but before you pour the filling into the springform pan, taste the spices and add more if you like.

    Description

    No bake golden milk cheesecake is packed with delicious spices and uses a creamy cashew based filling to make it dairy free. Gluten free/paleo/vegan option.


    Ingredients

    For the crust:

    • 1 C pecans, finely chopped
    • ¼ C coconut sugar
    • 3 Tbsp coconut oil, softened

    For the filling:

    • 2 C cashews, soaked in water overnight and brought to room temperature
    • ½ C coconut oil, melted
    • ¼ C + 2 Tbsp lemon juice
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • ½ C honey (or maple syrup if vegan)
    • 1 ½ tsp turmeric
    • 1 tsp ginger
    • 1 tsp cinnamon
    • ⅛ tsp black pepper

    Instructions

    1. In a bowl, combine the pecan crumbles and coconut sugar. Use a fork to mix in the 3 tablespoons of softened coconut oil. Transfer this mixture to a springform pan and pack it down evenly with your hands to form a crust.
    2. Drain the water from the cashews and discard. Add the cashews and all other filling ingredients to a food processor. (I recommend working in two batches if your food processor is small like mine. For two batches, be sure to evenly divide the cashews and liquid ingredients between each batch so that it blends properly.) Run the food processor until the contents are smooth, scraping down the sides if needed.
    3. Golden milk is typically pretty heavy in spice but I've made this one a little lighter as more of a crowd pleaser. After the filling has gone through the food processor, sample a little ad add more spices if you prefer. Once the spices are to your liking, pour the mixture over the crust and refrigerate until set, about four hours.
    4. Serve chilled. No need to soften.

    About Meagan

    I started out with a passion for creating unique recipes and decorating cakes. In June of 2012, I discovered I was not only severely gluten intolerant but also, many of the foods I was eating I simply couldn't include in my diet anymore. Fortunately, my love for trying new recipes, ingredients, and cooking methods made re-learning how to cook seem more like a fun challenge than an unfortunate circumstance. I'm so happy to say that my dietary restrictions haven't stopped me from doing what I love. I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do.

    I was going to write some jokes about logging but I was going to write some jokes about logging but you wooden get them. Because they’re super dumb. Ok, I’ll share anyway.
.
How do lumberjacks find a missing exponent?
By using LOGarithms
.
What did the lumberjack wear to work on casual Friday?
His favorite Tree-shirt
.
When is the most stressful time of year for a tree?
Sept-timber
.
I told you they were bad, right? 😅 Cut me some slack, they were for a kids birthday party. Oh, and I have more…
.
Why did the logger get a gym membership?
He wanted to get lumber jacked 💪
.
Why couldn’t the tree answer the riddle?
He was stumped
.
What kind of beer do lumberjacks drink?
Loggers 🍻
.
Why did the logger have back pain?
He didn’t have enough lumber support
.
Embarrassingly enough, I have a bunch more but I’ll save them for a project in a later blog post. For now, I just have the cake.
.
This is a 2 part, absolutely massive blog post on making this logging scene cake from start to finish. The cake is chocolate and vanilla layers with cookies & cream filling. And as always, gluten free and dairy free.

    Big news: I cleaned my house the other day 😅 Bu Big news: I cleaned my house the other day 😅 But seriously, it’s amazing how much having a clean space can help. My energy levels are completely uncalled for considering we’re well beyond a month of Erika barely sleeping at night and at least one family member dealing with a cold. I’m so tired of snot 😩 And being responsible for 3 peoples noses. We’re trying to graduate one nose to self-care but apparently the art of nose blowing takes a lot more boxes of tissues to master. We’ll get there.
.
Ok enough gross stuff. My finally clean again space has made me so much more focused and motivated to get things done. I’ve burned through most of my work to-do list and made it to the fun stuff that I don’t have to do but just want to. And since I was at that point, I decided to do something for myself by working on my blog. And I went a little overboard by working on 5 blog posts at once. I probably won’t get through them all but I have 3 ready so far.
.
This first post is a 30 minute ground beef stroganoff that I made almost 3 years ago. I didn’t do a great job writing down the recipe so I wasn’t able to post it until I figured out what I forgot to write down. Figured it out the other day and it was so good!

    I almost didn’t make this into a casserole becau I almost didn’t make this into a casserole because the sauce and pasta combined made a delicious side dish on their own! @beldolcefood #sponsored my most recent blog post and provided me with their new gluten free fusilli and penne to try out. I used the fusilli in this recipe and the sauce is a creamy, cheesy enchilada sauce made from just 3 ingredients.
.
I ended up adding taco meat, fire roasted tomatoes, corn, black beans, and dairy free cheese to make a taco noodle casserole. Then we ate it all and I made it again! This is one of those recipes that will be going in our regular meal rotation.
.
This is a pretty versatile recipe. It can be made vegan just by leaving out the meat and it’s just as good. And as I said earlier, the pasta with just the sauce makes a really good side dish. You can also top it with whatever you like such as cilantro, jalapeños, sour cream, scallions, or salsa.

    I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers t I’ll just say it - I’m one of those bloggers that makes cakes for their blogs “birthdays”. Or uses the blog birthdays as an excuse to make yet another cake recipe....yeah, that’s probably more accurate.
.
Definitely felt like I needed a good excuse for this one because it’s my fifth variation of gooey butter cake! However, my site is seven years old so maybe I should have had seven gooey butter cakes ready to go? Guess I’d better get caught up before year eight 😉
.
Anyways, I really enjoyed this carrot cake variation of gooey butter cake. The cake layer/crust swaps out the yellow cake mix with spice cake mix and I added in some shredded carrots and raisins. I kept the “gooey” top layer the same except that I topped it with a sprinkle of cinnamon and additional raisins before baking.
