The crust is made from ground almonds, Earth Balance non-dairy butter, and crumbled GFCF chocolate chip cookies. (I baked GFCF chocolate chip cookies last week and hid them in the freezer so I just tossed them in the food processor. And that's the way the cookie crumbles.)
I greased a springform pan with Earth Balance, patted the crust mixture inside and then baked at 350 for 10 minutes.
The filling is made from soy yogurt, Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese, pure maple syrup, lemon juice, corn starch and a fresh mango.
Blend the filling ingredients together until creamy and pour over crust.
Bake 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees until set. Cool on wire rack and then refrigerate until firm. Remove sides of springform pan.
The cookbook suggests topping with maple syrup and slices of fresh mango. I just brushed with a small amount of maple syrup and sprinkled with ground almonds. Everyone LOVED it!
