Servings: 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1 10.5 oz package soft plain tofu brought to room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon espresso instant coffee powder
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 5.5 oz dark chocolate bar, 70% cocoa
  • Flaked salt optional
  • Sweetened plain yogurt, shaved dark chocolate, raspberries for garnish (optional)

Method
 

  1. Drain tofu and place in high-speed blender or food processor. Add maple syrup, chia seeds, coffee powder, and cinnamon. Blend until smooth. While mixture rests, melt chocolate in saucepan over medium-low heat or in microwave, stirring until smooth and fully melted. Cool slightly.
  2. In blender with creamy tofu, turn motor to low and gradually drizzle in melted chocolate until fully blended and creamy. Spoon or pipe into 6 – 4 oz ramekins. Top each with a pinch of flaked salt if you wish. Place ramekins on tray, cover securely, and slide into refrigerator to chill.
  3. When ready to serve, drop a dollop of sweetened plain yogurt on top with shavings of grated chocolate and a couple of raspberries for garnish, if you wish.
