Cheeseless Cheesecake


This cheesecake is so good and tastes so much like cheese that it is hard to believe it isn't. Perfect to serve with a meat meal or for those that are lactose intolerant. Excellent with strawberries, chocolate shavings or just plain as it comes out of the oven looking beautiful. This recipe is so easy and is virtually impossible to mess up!

Ingredients:

2 containers of Tofutti cream cheese (make sure to get plain and not a flavored version)

2 eggs

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 cup of sugar

1 teaspoon of vanilla

Ready to use graham cracker pie crust

Mix all ingredients together. Easiest when the "cream cheese" is first mashed with a fork. Use an electric hand blender for a few seconds just to get rid of any remaining lumps.

Pour into the pie crust. Should fill to exactly the top.

Cook uncovered for 1/2 an hour at 350 degrees. If after 1/2 hour the top is still liquidy, cook another 10 minutes or so until it is starting to turn brown. Cool completely before serving. Enjoy!

Lemon Meringue Cheeseless Cheesecake
I have made the cheesecake and added some lemon juice and lemon zest. I bake and beat egg whites with sugar while its baking. Take out of the oven. Mound the egg whites on top, and bake for an extra 10 min or so. The most delicious Lemon Meringue cheesecake pie. Enjoy!

cheeseless cheesecake
I am in Southern California. I buy Toffuty Cream cheese at Trader Joes, Whole Foods Market, and the local health food store. Also all Kosher Markets carry it. There's also a dairy free sour cream, that you can mix with a little sugar and a teaspoon of vanilla, and use as a topping for the cheesecake. Yummy.

Where to buy
Toffuti cream cheese can be found in most supermarkets and in health food stores in the dairy section or in the organic/natural section of the fridge.
