Raspberry Marble Tofu Cheesecake
9 inch Springform pan
1 ¼ cups (1 package)
6 tablespoons butter, or margarine
1 /12 pounds silken tofu
1 cup sugar
8 ounces soy cream cheese
1/2 cup raspberry Jam
1. Crumble the graham crackers in a food processor until finely ground
2. Add the butter/margarine and pulse until the mixture reaches course crumbs.
3. Pat the mixture into a thick layer in the bottom of the spring-form pan, and set aside.
4. Preheat the oven to 350', and clean out the food processor.
5. In a small saucepan, heat the raspberry jam very slightly, to increase viscosity.
6 Put the tofu and soy cream cheese in the food processor, and blend until smooth, add the sugar until fully combined.
7. Pour the tofu mixture into the prepared crust, and drizzle the raspberry jam over the cake. With a toothpick, draw stripes across the jam to create a marbleized pattern.
