  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Press into the bottom and about half an inch up the sides of a 9-inch spring form pan.
  • Bake until lightly browned, about 45 minutes. Cool completely on a rack and, after sliding a knife around the edges to loosen, carefully remove sides of pan.
  • Stir the sugar into the pureed strawberries and chill. Beat the parve whip until it forms stiff peaks. Fold in tofu cream cheese; then gently fold in the chilled purée. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Spoon the chilled filling into the tart shell. Garnish with extra strawberries.
