Recipe adapted from "The Compassionate Cook" Cookbook by PETA
Prep Time 20 minutes mins
Total Time 2 hours hrs 30 minutes mins
- 1 Oreo Cookie Crust, unbaked (Recipe follows)
- 1 cup WowButter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 16 oz. Firm Silken Tofu, drained This is the tofu that comes in the little boxes, 11-12 oz. You will need to buy two boxes to get 16 oz.
- 25 Oreo Cookies For the crust
- 1/3 cup Melted Vegan Butter (I use Earth Balance) For the crust
First, make the crust: Slightly break up the Oreo Cookies by hand, then grind into crumbs in a food processor. Make sure no whole pieces are left. Add to a mixing bowl along with the melted Vegan Butter. Mix together with a fork until well combined. Press firmly into a 9 inch pie pan, covering sides and bottom. Refrigerate until firm, overnight for best results.For the Pie: Combine the WowButter, Tofu, Sugar, and Vanilla Extract in a food processor and blend well until smooth. Scrape sides down a few times while blending. Pour into the chilled crust, and smooth top. I use a pastry spatula. You can also (very lightly) swirl a design in the top, like the heart I did. Refrigerate 2 hours. Extra delicious with a vegan topping, such as the Reddi-Wip we used, or a homemade coconut cream, etc. Enjoy! :)
