- 1/4 cup Coconut Oil
- 1/4 cup Honey
- 1/4 tsp Salt
Rose Filling
- 24 oz Norman's Kosher Cholov Yisroel Cream Cheese, at room temperature
- 1 cup Sugar
- 3 tbsp Rose Water
- 4 Large Eggs, at room temperature
Berries & Cream Topping
- 1 1/2 cups Mixed Fresh Berries, rinsed and dried
- 1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- To make the hemp hearts base, place the hemp hearts, coconut oil, honey, and salt into a food processor. Pulse until finely ground and the mixture comes together.
- Press the mixture firmly into the base of a greased 9-inch springform pan and set aside.
- To make the rose filling, beat the cream cheese and sugar together in a bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Add the rose water and beat again until well combined.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition.
- Pour the filling over the hemp hearts base in the springform pan and smooth over the top with a spatula.
- Bake the cheesecake for 55-60 minutes, or until set around the edges but still slightly wobbly in the center.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Once cooled, chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before adding the toppings.
- To make the berries & cream topping, whisk the heavy whipping cream, honey, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until soft peaks form.
- Arrange the mixed berries on top of the chilled cheesecake, and then spread the whipped cream over the berries.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
