"Making homemade vegan cream cheese is easier than you might think and actually only requires a few ingredients. I love to use a combination of blanched almonds and cashews, but you can also just go for one type of nut. Use any kind of plant-based yogurt, but make sure to use an unsweetened one. Afterwards, you can refine the vegan cream cheese with any herbs of choice, even some spices, or finely chopped bell peppers and scallion."
