Equipment
- 3 ramekins
Ingredients
- 1 package silken tofu 12 oz
- 2 tablespoon macadamia milk I use Milkadamia unsweetened
- 3 tablespoon maple syrup more if you want it sweeter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips melted
- 3 tablespoon cocoa powder
Instructions
- In a food processor, blend silken tofu, milk, vanilla and maple syrup until smooth. Then add the cocoa and blend again.
- Melt dark chocolate in the microwave at 30 second increments, stirring in-between, until completely melted. Pour into the food processor and blend until smooth.
- Pour into three ramekins or small containers and let them chill and set in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Serve and enjoy chilled!
Notes
- Use silken tofu! You need silken tofu for the right texture. This is sold at most grocery stores with the rest of the tofu. So don't worry! It's not hard to find.
- You can use cocoa or cacao powder–either one will work!
- Don't have macadamia nut milk? That's okay–use any other unsweetened plant milk!
- Chill in the fridge for at least a few hours before serving. This needs to set in the fridge after you make it.
