Yummy Vegan Cheesecake

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    16 graham cinnamon graham crackers, crumbled
    1/2 cup vegan margarine
    1 tablespoon light Karo syrup
    1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
    16 oz. Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese
    1/3 cup sugar (or fructose)
    4 EnerG egg substitute "eggs"
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    juice of one lemon
    Ah!Laska vegan chocolate syrup
    fresh raspberries

Directions:

Crust:  Combine graham crackers, margarine (adjust amount as needed), Karo syrup, and flour in a bowl.  Mix by hand and press firmly into a round pan.

Filling: Combine "cream cheese", sugar, "eggs", vanilla, and lemon juice in a blender and blend until creamy and smooth.  Pour onto crust.

Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 25-30 minutes, until set (doesn't jiggle when you move the pan).  Let cool.  Place in refrigerator and chill for 12 hours.

Topping:  You may use any kind of topping such as strawberries in syrup, chocolate, vegan whipped cream, etc.  My personal favorite is drizzling the cheesecake in Ah!Laska vegan chocolate syrup and adding fresh raspberries.  Mmm!

Serves: 8-10

Preparation time: 30 min.

I gave this 4 stars, because it was very good, but needs some tweaking. I would halve the lemon because it was very tart. I mixed the Ener-G with water (not sure if I was supposed to or not), but I think that made it too watery and thus too creamy (not firm enough) in the middle of the cheesecake. Maybe I'll use less next time. I used a premade Keebler shortbread crust. It was really good, and I'll post the results once I perfect it. Thanks!!

Your photo skills sure put mine to shame, snowbunny and agilchrist!

Boy, this cheesecake really hit the spot.  I almost cried when I ate it!  I havent had cheese cake in.....4 or five years.  Reminds me of restaurants and my late grandma and simpler times.  Very nostalgic!  Should be titled "Emotional Vegan Cheesecake"

Thank you for a decadent, easy dessert.  And also thanks for the inspiration to reminisce and self-reflect!

Mmm...this was really good. I haven't tasted a single vegan cheesecake that tasted like "real" cheesecake. Except this one. It was delicious! Even my omni friends and family liked it.

Thanks for the WONDERFUL recipe!

i searched high and low for vegan graham crackers.... they were hiding or something cuz i couldn't find them any where so i used gingersnap cookies instead. turned out really good. i don't get why it needs 12 hours in the fridge... i left it in for 5 and it was fine. oh, yeah... DON'T ADD WATER TO YOUR "EGG", you'll end up with a runny messy creamy pie. i didn't and it turned out REALLY good and firm. thank you for this recipe... it's definately a once in a while pie but it's fantastic! Cheesy

karo syrup is a light corn syrup.  You could subsitute it with any sweet syrup, try brown rice syrup (what I use), maple syrup, agave nectar...etc

Or, if you're lazy, you could buy a premade graham cracker crust.  Most "low fat" store brands are vegan--just watch out for honey!!

I made this and man was it delicious! I accidentally cooked it at a lower heat resulting in a bit of over cooking but still tasted great. I actually sliced strawberries and mixed them with a little bit of maple syrup for a topping, it was great!
I also used a premade crust and broke down the rough calories per serving.
sliced in 8 pieces its around 350 per serving
