P.S. I just made this last night and it's really yummy. It's really soft, though, almost like creme brulee. If anyone has any tips on how to make it thicker let me know! :)

would any local or chain supermarkets carry Tofutti cream cheese? I've been at college for a while, so haven't been able to check much. I remember that Stop & Shop carried Tofutti ice cream...(sooooo good :drool:)

I know Wegman's does, and of course Wholefoods. What stores do you have near you? Seriously, that stuff is so good - in this recipe, or on bagels...Mmm!

are graham cracker crusts vegan, or do you have to make it homemade?

I thought graham cracker crusts weren't vegan ?

There are definitely vegan ones. I buy mine from Wholefoods (they have chocolate ones too...mmm!) but I vaguely remember Keebler ones being vegan also.

Wow, this sounds really good. You might try Argar Arger for a thickiner.

thank you!!!! sounds yummy!! I'll try it when I'm rich. :-p

Tried this last week, and it was pretty good.

I just happened to have some tofutti cream cheese in the fridge,

Although I used digestive biscuits for the base. digestives, marg and sugar. the marg and sugar melted in a pan and the add the biscuits.

I tried making it again, but this time added a block of semi-firm tofu(well, not the silk tofu or the firm tofu. duno what you would call it), at the blender stage. It filled it out a bit more.

I thought it was better.
