Whatever your flavor of choice, chocolate or vanilla, this is the recipe for you. I liken it to America's constitutional great compromise, but perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself. So the following recipe is a vanilla tea infused soy milk and tofu chocolate pudding. It has no added sugar, just that in the semisweet chocolate, and is pumped with protein. Oh, and did I mention it is dairy-free...this one's for dear old Dad. By the way...this is a recipe I adapted from 101cookbooks.com (which is an unbelievably awesome site...really long hyperlink). The original recipe called for green tea, but I was feeling some vanilla, so ahh here it goes (bonus points for the pop cultural reference).
Ingredients
1 Cup chocolate soy milk
1 Tablespoon loose vanilla tea leaves
10 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
13 ounces silken tofu
On the low side of 1/4 cup of extra firm tofu (the recipe called for soft tofu, but Whole Foods was out)
1/2 Tablespoon of vanilla paste (a drop of vanilla paste)
Instructions
Pour chocolate soy milk and tea leaves into a bowl and bring to a boil. Let it cool. Melt chocolate chips in microwave (3 minutes). Combine soy milk mixture, chocolate chips and tofu into a bowl. Add vanilla paste. Mix in food processor until silky smooth consistency. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
Verdict
So it was a bit heavy in the chocolate flavor, and a little bitter. Good "moosey" consistency, and I quite liked it when I added a few packs of splenda.
