Chocolate Tofu Pudding
Vegetarian Times Issue: May 1, 2005 p.39
Directions
- Heat chocolate and oil in top of double boiler set over barely simmering water. Whisk until smooth. Remove pan from water, and let cool 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut tofu into thick slabs, and place on triple layer of paper towels. Press firmly on tofu to squeeze out as much water as possible; change paper towels if necessary.
- Put maple syrup, soymilk, lemon juice, vanilla extract and tahini into food processor. Crumble tofu into mixture, and purée until smooth, scraping down sides with spatula as necessary. Add melted chocolate, and process until well blended.
- Transfer pudding into 6 custard cups or small bowls. Cover each with plastic wrap, and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours, or until softly set. To serve, top with berries.

My, oh my this is good, good, good. I was doubtful, honestly. I like tofu, and in fact like all the ingredients listed. But I was thinking "tahini? lemon juice? is this going to be some hybrid of hummus and pudding?" But let me tell you - this pudding rocks. I may never make regular milk-custard stuff ever again!!
