I like to make healthy food preparation as simple and easy as possible. This recipe will teach you how to make a 'sweet nut cream' and a savoury 'cheese nut cream' at the same time!!
Soaking the nuts makes the mixture more creamy and smooth.
You can also make this recipe with only cashew nuts if you do not have macadamia nuts on hand.
I use the cheese for toast- as a dip with veggie sticks or to put over roasted vegetables. If you want the cheese or the whip, a thinner consistency slowly add more water until it's reached your desired consistency.
I am obsessed with the sweet whipped cream. My favourite ways to serve it is with dark chocolate and berries for dessert, as a sweet cream paired with nut butter on toast or as a side for breakfast pancakes.
The cheese or cream will last in the fridge for about 5 days. You can also freeze it for later use. If I have any leftovers I haven’t used after a few days I freeze the cream in an ice cube tray to add to smoothies!
Macadamia Cashew Cream Two Ways!
