    Q: How much of the 8 ounces tofutti cream cheese was used for the first part with the peanut butter?

    It says Stir in remaining 8 ounces tofutti cream cheese- How much is left then. 1/4 the package?

    • The recipe calls for 2 packages of tofutti cream cheese, 8 ounces per container. After you stir in the “remaining 8 ounces”, there should be nothing left. This recipe is really delicious; let me know how it turns out.

    • Sure, just make sure its large enough. Cheesecake is better with graham cracker crust and those are a bit small so divide batter in half and make two, and freeze one for another time.
