This cheese is absolutely wonderful. It has a creamy texture that is consistent throughout. You could totally trick a dairy-cheese lover into thinking it was a dairy-based cheese.

Author's Notes

The texture is somewhere between goat cheese and cream cheese.

The key to getting it super creamy is making sure you blend it really really well. It should be almost like cream when it's finished blending. I don't think it would work in a food processor, you need a high-power blender like a Blendtec or a Vitamix.
