Vegan Eggnog Cheesecake

A cheesecake is on the must have list for the holidays. We've included the ingredients and instructions for preparations.

Ingredients
1 12.3-ounce package extra firm light silken tofu
1 8-ounce package Tofutti Better than Cream Cheese
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegan eggnog (see note)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 1/2 tablespoons brandy or rum
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg, packed
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 prepared graham cracker or oatmeal cookie crust

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Drain the tofu and put it and the Tofutti cream cheese into your food processor. Blend until smooth. Add the sugar and eggnog, and process again until sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients (except crust) and process until completely smooth, about 3 more minutes. Pour into the pie crust and bake in the middle of the oven for about 55 minutes (do not allow to brown). Filling will be slightly jiggly, not completely set until chilled.
Remove from oven and allow to cool. Refrigerate until completely chilled (the longer, the better). Serve sprinkled with additional grated nutmeg.

Note:
You may use vanilla soymilk instead of eggnog. Just increase the brandy to 3 tablespoons and the nutmeg to 1 teaspoon and add an additional two teaspoons of sugar.

65 Million Dollar Mansion


Coldwell Banker recently listed the house at 2585 Riviera Drive in Laguna Beach, California for $65million dollars. First there was the $190 million estate in Connecticut, and now the West Coast is adding their own record-breaking listing to the housing market. In a sign that the housing market is improving, more lavish mansions are entering the market with jaw-dropping asking prices.


Currently it is the second most expensive home in the entire state of California, according to Zillow. It is also estimated to be the largest oceanfront home in the area. The master bedroom has his-and-hers closets and bathrooms – with extra space for the women’s closet accessed by an elevator down to the basement.
