Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Vegan Cashew Cheese Spread.
Step 1
Start by placing your cashews in a bowl and covering them with hot water.
Step 2
Let them soak for about 5 to 10 minutes; this will help soften them and make blending a breeze.

After soaking, drain the cashews and transfer them to your blender.
Step 4
Now, add in half a cup of fresh water, a splash of lemon juice, a dash of apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Blend everything together until you achieve a wonderfully creamy consistency.
Step 6
Don’t forget to pause occasionally to scrape down the sides of the blender for an even mix.
Step 7
Once your mixture is smooth and velvety, fold in some freshly chopped chives for a burst of flavor and a delightful texture.
Step 8
You can enjoy your cashew cream cheese right away, or if you prefer, pop it in the fridge for a bit to chill before serving.
Step 9
This creamy delight is perfect for spreading on bagels, crackers, or even as a dip for veggies.
Step 10
Enjoy your delicious creation!.
