Ingredients
Directions
1/3 cup extra-firm silken tofu1/3 cup vanilla soymilk1/3 cup unbleached sugar1 tablespoon cornstarch1/4 cup Earth Balance Margarine3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs (check package ingredients carefully--most aren't vegan)1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans2/3 cup flaked coconut3/4 cup vegan semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 350F and spray a glass 8x8-inch baking dish with non-stick spray. In a blender, puree the tofu, soymilk, cornstarch, and sugar until completely smooth.
Put the margarine into a bowl and melt it in the microwave (or do this on the stove and pour into a bowl). Add the graham cracker crumbs and mix until well-moistened. Pour them into the prepared baking dish and press evenly to cover the bottom of the pan.
Pour the tofu mixture over the crust. Sprinkle with the nuts, cocount, and chocolate chips, and press it all into the dish firmly with a fork.
Bake for about 30 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool completely before cutting into about 16 bars. Devour!
