I will definitely try this. My niece, who is a raw food vegan makes something similar when she comes over for Pesach. In place of the oil and water she uses avocados. You have to use a lot of them, but they do NOT add any taste, just a wonderful creamy texture.

  hi Maxine — that sounds AMAZING!!! I hadn’t thought of that trick. Would certainly make these more expensive but probably more thick and creamy. What does she use to sweeten?
