Quickie Vegan Cheesecake
Need a Quick "Cheese" Cake?
One night, my niece was coming for Shabbat (the Sabbath) and it just so happened to be her birthday. She asked for an ice cream cake for her birthday. But I can't eat dairy or sugar (and my Mom can't eat dairy and my Dad can't eat sugar), so I needed to come up with something else for us.

It was right before Shabbat (the Sabbath) and we aren't permitted to cook or bake on Shabbat. So I had to work fast. I had already created the recipe in my head, so I tried it out. I took one container of vegan cream cheese, added stevia equivalent to one cup of sugar and some grated organic lemon rind (when using rind, it's more important than usual to use organic) -- the more the merrier (about 1 teaspoon). I took about 2 Tablespoon of nut flour (hazelnut or almond) and lined a small loaf pan. I then put the cream cheese mixture on top of the nut "crust". I put it in the oven at 350 degrees until firm. Then I let it cool and refrigerated it. It came out really delicious.
