Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a food processor along with the nutritional yeast, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika (for the filling), and salt. Process for 1 minute, then add water 1 tablespoon at a time and continue processing until the mixture is smooth and thick enough to hold its shape when scooped — similar to a stiff cream cheese. Scrape down the sides as needed.
