Sweet Macadamia Creamed Cheese

Using a basic Macadamia Nut Cheese, I created this sweet version. It's a great companion for my Crazy, Nutsy Banana Bread.

It's also great on raw crackers or fruit.

Sweet Macadamia Nut Cheese  
2 cups raw macadamia nuts (soaked 1 hour).
water, to cover nuts
liquid sweetener to taste (raw honey, maple syrup, etc)
2 T finely chopped walnuts (optional)
2 T finely chopped dates (optional)
1 T soaked raisins and/or goji berries (optional)
dash of cinnamon, as garnish
pinch sea salt
.

Directions: 
Blend water and nuts until very creamy. Add water slowly as needed to blend, not too much.

If cheese is to watery, you can do the following:
Transfer to a nut milk bag (nylon mesh bag) or cheese cloth.Slowly squeeze the cream from the bag, pressing, massaging, kneading the bag, until you have a nice hunk of "cream cheese" in bag.
Save the "cream" and use in smoothies or other recipes.

Place cheese in a bowl and fold in remaining ingredients.

Chill to set and spread on bread, or use as a veggie dip. YUmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
