Step-by-Step Instructions for White Chocolate Cranberry Cheesecake
- In a food processor, blend together walnuts, almonds, dates, figs, raisins, orange zest, and warming spices until you achieve a sticky, crumbly mixture. Scoop it out into a springform pan, spreading it evenly across the base.
- Use your fingers or the bottom of a flat measuring cup to press the crust mixture down into the pan evenly. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- Blend the cranberries in the food processor until smooth. If desired, add maple syrup to taste and pour the mixture over the chilled crust.
- In the food processor, combine coconut cream and melted cocoa butter until smooth. Spread this mixture over the cranberry layer.
- Drop spoonfuls of the remaining cranberry mixture on top of the white chocolate layer and swirl gently with a knife for a decorative effect.
- Cover the pan and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight for best results. Once firm, the cheesecake should hold its shape when cut.
- Release the sides of the springform pan, slice the cheesecake, and serve chilled. Garnish with fresh cranberries or a sprinkle of orange zest.

Notes
Chill the cheesecake overnight for best texture and flavor. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother consistency.
