Got this off of PETA's website. I really love tofutti (vegan cream cheese) and want to make special Easter treats, so if someone wants to modify this to make it raw-licious that would be great. I haven't tried any raw cream cheese recipes yet. Up for the challenge?
Chocolate Eggs Recipe
1 8-oz. package nondairy cream cheese, softened at room temperature
3 cups powdered sugar
12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate, melted
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
Decorations, e.g., chopped nuts, unsweetened cocoa, toasted flaked coconut
Beat the nondairy cream cheese in a mixing bowl until it is smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until it is well blended. Add the melted chocolate and vanilla and mix well. Refrigerate for about 1 hour. Shape the mixture into 1-inch balls or egg shapes and roll them in the nuts, cocoa, or coconut. Store the finished chocolates in the refrigerator.
