Chocolate Tofu Pudding

    Tofu Pudding

    We have all heard by now that chocolate, in moderation, is heart-healthy. Well, the good news keeps coming! New research published in the British Medical Journal and presented at the European Society of Cardiology’s conference earlier this week in Paris states that consuming chocolate may slash the risk of heart disease by a third.

    Silken tofu is one of my favorite secret weapons in the healthy kitchen. If you’ve ever attended a party at my house, you’ve most likely fallen in love with my Edamummus which uses tofu instead of chick peas (along with edamame.)  I love using tofu to create dips and desserts because it is light, creamy and thick. The naturally mild taste of tofu allows you to flavor it however you like.

    Your spoon is waiting.

    Ingredients
     

    • 1 square unsweetened chocolate
    • cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    • 12.3 ounces package silken tofu – firm

It is important for the bowl not to touch the boiling water or you may burn the chocolate.
