Serves 6-8

For the base:

For the filling:

For topping (all optional):

Preheat oven to 325F. Oil the base and sides of an 8-inch springform tin and set aside.
To make the base, place the Graham crackers in a food processor and process until you get a fine crumb. Add the melted butter and process again until evenly mixed.
Press mixture to the bottom of the spring-form tin. Use the flat bottom of a glass to get it even. Place in the fridge until needed.
For the filling, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring frequently. Set aside.
Combine the tofu, cream cheese, sugar, creamer, orange zest, lemon juice, corn flour, vanilla, sea salt, plant milk and melted chocolate in a blender. Blend on low speed until just combined.
Pour mixture onto the base. Tap the baking tin gently onto the work surface to even out the top and get rid of any air bubbles.
Place in the oven and cook for 40 minutes (don’t open it while it’s cooking), then open the oven door slightly and let the cake cool in the oven until it is cool enough to handle. Remove from oven and place in the fridge for 3-4 hours or overnight.
To serve, pipe whipped cream on top of the cake and garnish with raspberries, fondant hearts, edible flowers and sprinkles. Slice and serve. Enjoy!
