Steps

1

Soak your cashews overnight in the fridge in clean, filtered water
2

Drain your cashews and then throw them into a high-powered blender like a Vitamix. add the water and then pulse a bit to break up the cashews and start getting them creamy.
3

Add all of your other ingredients and then blend until super creamy. Makes about 2 cups. Pour into a mason jar and it lasts for about a week in the fridge but it tastes so good it will not last that long. You serve it warm- I like to put it on the stove top or even microwave it for quick chips and cheese.
