This very decadent chocolate treat is gluten, egg and dairy free. Sprinkle cocoa
powder or powdered sugar on top along with some fresh fruit, and you’ve got a
beautiful, crowd-pleasing dessert. It freezes well and is also quite good frozen!
Ingredients
1 lb Heiwa tofu, crumbled
1⁄4 cup maple syrup
1 lb high-quality bittersweet chocolate
Instructions
Crumble tofu into blender. Puree tofu and maple syrup, adding water (1/2 to 1
cup) as needed. Use a rubber spatula to scrape sides until it reaches a smooth,
yogurt-like consistency, about 3-5 minutes. Pour into a medium bowl. Melt
chocolate in double boiler. Stir chocolate into tofu mixture rapidly until it is
evenly mixed. Pour into mold of your choice, cover, and refrigerate until firm, at
least 4 hours.
