Cheesecake Bites

Earth Angel Vegan’s Cheesecake Bites are yummylicious!  As they are not for every day they are the bomb for a special party or occasion.  As with most of my recipes they are versatile.  The ones pictured have an old fashioned Oreo for the base, but you could use any flavor you want.  I also topped these with strawberry pie filling because of the chocolate base but I could have used cherry and it would have been just as good.  A combo of a golden Oreo and pineapple topping sounds pretty darn good too… so use this recipe as your base and get creative!

Recipe:  Preheat oven to 350 and line muffin tins with a paper liner

1 pack of your favorite flavor sandwich cookie

1 8oz container vegan cream cheese

1 12 oz package Mori-nu firm tofu

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 tsp lemon extract

2 Tbsp cornstarch

1 can of your favorite pie filling

After lining your muffin tins with liners, drop an Oreo sandwich cookie in each liner.  In  a food processor or with a mixer – mix the remaining ingredients  except pie filling until smooth and creamy

Put about 1/4th cup of cheesy filling on top of each cookie.  Bake at 350 for about 35 minutes.  Take them out of the oven and cool.  When cool top with filling and it is best to put them in the fridge to completely cool and set up for at least 2 hours.
