1. Place raw cashews into a container and fill with water, cover, and place in the fridge to soak overnight (or for at least 3 hours).
2. Drain and rinse cashews and place them into a high powered blender along with remaining ingredients. Blend on high until smooth and creamy (stop to scrape down the sides as needed). See notes if not using a high powered blender.
3. Line a mini-muffin pan with silicon mini-muffin cups.
4. Scoop the chocolate hazelnut cheesecake mixture evenly between the silicon cups. Sprinkle with crushed hazelnuts and place muffin tray in the freezer to set for at least six hours.

Remove from the freezer 5 minutes before enjoying, and store remaining cheesecake bites in an airtight container in the freezer. Consume within 2-4 weeks.
