Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs or honey-free graham crackers
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons vegan butter, melted
- 1 (11.25 ounce) can coconut or oat sweetened condensed milk or homemade
- 10.8 ounces Mori Nu silken tofu, drained
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons lime zest
- 2/3 cup fresh lime juice from key limes if possible
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, combine Biscoff crumbs, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and melted vegan butter until it resembles moist crumbs.
- Press the mixture into a parchment-lined 8-inch square baking pan and bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a blender, add the sweetened condensed milk, silken tofu, 1 cup of sugar, lime zest, lime juice, and cornstarch. Blend until smooth.
- Transfer the mixture to a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and whisk continuously until it thickens and reaches a boil.
- Remove from heat and pour the filling over the cooled crust. Allow it to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then refrigerate for a minimum of 3 hours before serving.
- Once set, cut into bars and serve with vegan whipped cream and an extra sprinkle of lime zest.
Notes
For a creamier texture, ensure the silken tofu is well-drained before blending.
Using fresh key limes will enhance the flavor but regular limes work well too.
These bars can also be made a day ahead for convenience.
