So, there are many ways to take this basic recipe and make all kinds of tasty goodness! My favorite lately though has been chocolate.
Crust:
1 Cup Almond Meal
1 Cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes (Bob's Redmill makes this the cheapest)
1 Cup Dates, chopped, then blended with 2 Tbsp water
1/2 Cup Earth Balance, melted
Filling:
1 Package Silken Tofu (it really does have to be silken)
1 Cup Chocolate Unsweetened Almond Milk
1/2 Cup Cocoa Powder
1 Cup Dates, chopped, then blended with 1/2 Cup water
1 Tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
For Crust, mix all ingredients then press into the bottom of a Springform pan, and bake on 350 until light brown, about 20 minutes.
For Filling, blend all ingredients in blender until smooth. Pour into crust and bake on 350 until knife comes out clean- about 30 minutes.
Cool completely in fridge about 2 hours, overnight is best. Slice and serve!
You can substitute many things in this recipe- I like making "Mango Cheesecake" by adding fresh mango instead of cocoa, and using vanilla unsweetened almond milk instead.
