Simple Tofu No-Bake Cheesecake

I found a good recipe in a macrobiotic cooking book and rearranged it a bit.

When you chill these desserts, they will harden a little. Some liquid will seep out of the tofu and rise to the so please remove it before eating. These desserts don't keep for long so please eat them on the same day or morning after. If you don't have any white miso then you can use white sesame paste instead.

The lemon really makes this dessert feel like an authentic cheesecake but you can also still taste the tofu as well. Recipe by Miyakojika

  4. 1 tbspWhite miso
  5. Toppings:
  6. 1Strawberries, oranges etc.

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Drain the tofu for around 20 minutes. I used "Pecchin"'s method, shown in "How to Drain Tofu for Sloppy Housewives".

  2. 2

    Mix the tofu, lemon juice, and maple syrup, together with a hand mixer (or in a food processor) until smooth.

  3. 3

    You can use either silken or firm tofu for this recipe (firm tofu gives a denser dessert) but firm tofu does tend to go lumpy so blend it well.

  4. 4

    Add the dessert to a glass or container and top with fruit. Chill in the refrigerator and serve. If you like sweeter desserts, try eating it with maple syrup.

  5. 5

    Recipe variation: "Tofu Black Sesame Blancmange". Feel free to give it a try.
