Alton Brown was on Dr. Oz ( I can hear Arielle and Greg groaning) and he had the easiest chocolate recipe ever!! Sets up with protein not fat (whip cream) and no eggs!!
1 bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips (i don't use Nestle's they don't taste real anymore) I use trader Joe's or ghiradelli's
1lb of silken tofu-use organic non-GMO tofu
1tsp of Vanilla
1TB of Honey or Agave
1/3 cup of Kahlua
Graham Cracker or Chocolate Cookie Pie Crust or use custard cups and no crust.
Food Processor with metal blade
Melt the chocolate, Kahlua either in the microwave or over a double boiler. Don't let the water get too hot or next to the bowl or the chocolate will seize. (the good news is everything goes in a food processor so this is a very forgiving recipe)
Add the honey and vanilla to chocolate and stir
Put the tofu in the food processor add the chocolate mixture blend for a minute.
Poor mixture into pie crust and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours until set.
My niece and nephew love this and they have no idea it has tofu.
Options: you can leave out Kahlua and use strong coffee and 1/4 cup of honey or agave.
I have bought half cup container with lids and portioned it out and used it too spread on plain cookies...
Added it to plain yogurt...good-bye vegan
Top with whip cream and strawberries...raspberries...any fruit you like
Slice a chocolate Vita-top muffin in half and fill spread a small amount of all natural peanut butter and some of the chocolate cream...top and whoopie!!!
Enjoy!
