I baked the chocolate cheesecake recipe from the non-dairy.org website
(is still listed under the October dinner recipes) with the tofutti cream
cheese substitute. It was excellent! My husband is a true cheese cake
conossiour and couldn't tell the difference. Of course this recipe was
designed to be dairy free and chocolate was used to flavor the cream
cheese. But I wouldn't hesitate to try other recipes particularly if they
have plenty of flavor to mix with the tofutti. Tofu products seem to work
best that way, by absobing other flavors.
