Vegan Lemon Cheesecake Bites

Bite sized lemony treats with an authentic baked cheesecake texture. You can make as per this recipe, or simply cut more traditionally into cake shaped slices/wedges for a dessert serving. The toppings are optional. Pictured here with our homemade paleo chocolate, a fruit coulis would make this a wonderful summer experience, or try with some coconut whipped cream for extra indulgence.
