How to do it
- LINE a standard muffin tin with 12 muffin liners and set aside. Prepare the cheesecake crust.
- ADD to a food processor almond, your Choc-o-lotta Dilettoso mix, dates, coconut oil, pumpkin pie spice, and pulse until well combined. Mixture will be thick and sticky.
- PRESS about 1 tbsp. of the crust mixture into the base of lined muffin tin. Place in the freezer to set.
- PREPARE the cheesecake filling by adding raw cashews, vanilla yogurt, milk of choice, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, and lemon zest, to a high-speed blender. Blend on highest speed until mixture is thick and creamy, about 45-60 seconds.
- REMOVE cheesecake crusts from the freezer. Pour cheesecake filling overtop, filling about ¾ of the muffin tin.
- RETURN to the freezer to set completely, at least 3 hours.
- REMOVE from the freezer, you’re ready to devour them and let thaw on the counter for about 5 minutes. They’ll be easy to pop out of the muffin tin and enjoy at that point!

Pumpkin has an impressive nutrient profile! Besides being packed with vitamins and minerals, pumpkin is also relatively low in calories, as it’s 94% water. It’s also very high in beta-carotene, a carotenoid that your body turns into vitamin A. Studies show that vitamin A can strengthen your immune system and help fight infections.
