Ingredients

1 block silken tofu firm or extra firm (12 oz)*
2 oz dark chocolate bar or chocolate chips
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup or another liquid sweetener
1 teaspoon instant coffee optional
1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional

Instructions

Melting chocolate - Microwave or stove

Microwave - Microwave for 30-second bursts, or until the chocolate has mostly melted.
Double boiler - Fit a metal bowl over a saucepan with 1 inch of simmering water. Make sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water and stir until the chocolate is fully melted.

Making tofu chocolate pudding

In a food processor or high-speed blender, blend all ingredients until smooth. Stop to scrape the sides of the blender if needed.
Give it a taste, adding more sweetener if needed.
Transfer tofu pudding into glass jars or small ramekins. Refrigerate for at least an hour to thicken before digging in!

Notes

*Silken tofu – Go for firm or extra-firm silken tofu for a creamier and thicker texture. For refrigerated tofu, bring it to room temperature by taking it out of the fridge an hour before using.

Adjusting ingredients based on tofu size

Silken tofu commonly comes in 14-ounce and 16-ounce packages. This recipe is written for 14-ounce tofu.
If you are using 16-ounce tofu, scale up the other ingredients as follows:

2.5 oz dark chocolate
1.5 tablespoons cocoa powder
2.5 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon instant coffee

Storing leftovers - Refrigerate pudding in a jar for up to 5 days. For easy grab-and-go servings, portion into 4-oz small jars or containers.
