Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

For graham cracker crust:
1 1/4 cups chocolate or regular graham cracker crumbs (from nine 5-by 2 1/2-inch graham crackers)
3 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons Earth Balance vegan buttery spread, melted and cooled, plus additional for greasing pan
For chocolate tofu filling:
2 1/4 cups sugar, divided
1/3 cup water
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate (no more than 60% cacao), chopped
2 (1-pound packages silken tofu, drained
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch-process)
2 (8-ounces) containers soy cream cheese at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Rounded 1/4 teaspoon salt
Equipment: a 9-inch springform pan

Steps:

  • Make graham cracker crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in middle and lower third and put a baking sheet on lower rack. Flip bottom of springform pan so lip is facing down, then lock in place. Grease bottom and side of pan.
  • Stir together all crust ingredients, then press onto bottom and 1 inch up side of pan. Bake until set, 10 to 12 minutes, then cool completely, about 45 minutes.
  • Make chocolate tofu filling:
  • Heat 1 cup sugar in a 1 1/2-to 2-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring with a fork to heat sugar evenly, until it starts to melt, then stop stirring and cook, swirling pan occasionally so sugar melts evenly, until it is dark amber. Remove from heat and carefully stir in water (mixture will bubble up and steam and caramel will harden), then cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until caramel has dissolved. Remove from heat and whisk in chopped chocolate until smooth. Cool fudge sauce slightly.
  • Purée tofu and cocoa in a food processor until smooth.
  • Beat soy cream cheese and remaining 1 1/4 cups sugar with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until fluffy. At low speed, beat in tofu purée, vanilla, salt, and fudge sauce until incorporated.
  • Pour filling into crust and bake on middle rack until top of cake is shiny but center is still slightly wobbly when pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour. Turn oven off and leave cake in oven 1 hour more.
  • Run a knife around top edge of cake to loosen, then cool completely in pan on rack (cake will continue to set as it cools). Chill cake, loosely covered, at least 6 hours. Remove side of pan and transfer cake to a plate. Bring to room temperature before serving if desired.

Tips:

  • Use super firm or extra firm tofu. This will ensure that your cheesecake has a dense and creamy texture.
  • Press the tofu properly. This will help to remove excess moisture and give the cheesecake a smooth texture.
  • Use high-quality chocolate. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cheesecake.
  • Don't over-bake the cheesecake. It should be set in the center, but still have a slight jiggle to it.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This chocolate tofu cheesecake is a delicious and decadent dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a great way to use up leftover tofu. With its rich chocolate flavor and creamy texture, this cheesecake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give this chocolate tofu cheesecake a try.
