Vegan Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake
(Makes 1 Large 9-inch cheesecake)
So about that cheesecake… I hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving Day. We ate so much food. I feel so bleh right about now. This cheesecake recipe was experimental, meaning I just threw it together ‘by feel.’ It came out rather delicious but a little soft. We didn’t mind it at all since the texture and taste was still there. Maybe next time I’ll freeze it or add cornstarch or something to make it a bit more firm. I hope you try this one, pumpkin and great for the season. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
3 Pkgs (8oz) Tofutti’s Cream Cheese (vegan cream cheese)
1 (1 lb) Pkg Silken Tofu (I used Nasoya brand)
1 Cup Sugar
1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
½ Tsp Ground Cinnamon
¼ Tsp Nutmeg
½ Tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
¼ Cup Brown Sugar
1 Prepared Graham Cracker Crust (Extra Large 9-Inch)
Directions:
-Preheat oven 375 degrees.
-Blend together Cream Cheese, Tofu, Sugar and Vanilla extract with mixer.
-Remove 1 Cup of Cream Cheese mixture into a separate small bowl. Pour the rest of the cream cheese mixture into prepared graham cracker crust.
-To the 1 Cup of Cream Cheese mixture add: pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until blended.
-Layer in the pumpkin mixture over the cream cheese and swirl or keep it layered. Bake for 45 minutes. Let stand and refrigerate overnight. Enjoy!

Using Silken Tofu has proven to be somewhat of a challenge but have to try this one because after all how can you stay away from cheese cake…
