  1. Step 1: Add cashews to a blender

  9. Step 9: Place in the refrigerator to set overnight. You can also put this in the freezer for thirty minutes if you need it right away

  10. Step 10: Remove parchment paper and place on counter (used side up) to finish ball

  11. Step 11: Add some of the chopped parsley and slivered almonds to parchment.

  12. Step 12: Turn the bowl upside down to remove the ball and roll over parsley and almonds. Add more parsley and almonds to cover

  13. Step 13: Optional - Sprinkle in some red pepper flakes

  14. Step 14: Place the cashew cheese ball on a platter and adorn with an assortment of delicious crackers, olives, peppers, Tofurky slices… whatever you love on a Charcuterie Board!
