SO HOW'D IT GO?
I will never use this recipe again. It tasted like plain tofu and quite chalky. Maybe it was because I was stuck using Nasoya (gag), but this was a waste of money. :(
i really really didn't like this. i used the soymilk instead of the water and my silken tofu was a low fat variety. i just felt that overall it tasted like silken soy milk or something... i've never tried silken tofu on its own so i wonder if the whole thing just tasted like the tofu? gonna salvage this by making some smoothies, or maybe a cheesecake like suggested in the recipe, but this is going nowhere near my sandwiches and breakfast bagels!!
Yo. I'm siked. I haven't tried this yet, but I think it'll be a great thing. I'm sorta sick of buying tubs of toffutti for 3.00 bucks...especially if it isn't ice cream. (I probably wouldn't go there {making ice cream}, even as a DIY vegan.)
Cream cheese is something I can do. I'll let you know how it goes...
